Could anyone having an original 69 front fender mounting antenna please send me a picture for hole placement Thank You !! chevelleguy@comcast.net

What year, Nick. I have one for a 69.

Trooper

I guess that would help huh,, duh,, yes sir I need it for a 69,, this car has the fender antenna, but it just doesnt look right, all my other 69s were rear mount, so I have nothing to compare it to,,, Thank You Sir !!

Not a real good reference in the manual, basically there is a hole in the inner structure it should line up with. Here is a pic of mine I believe is original http://www.chevelles.com/showroom/showphoto.php?photo=5576&cat=500

Thanx Mike,, mine is the same, thought it looked alittle to close to fender edge,, pretty car !!

That looks too close to me too. I've got an original fender off the car with the antenna off. I'll try to get a pic of it tonight.

Trooper

Here is the pic from the manual, like I said not too clear?? http://www.chevelles.com/showroom/69ssmike/File0001.jpg

Fenders are original GM's, antenna is a new part from one of the common resto places, forget which.

Nick,
Here is the pic I promised. This is an original 69 GM fender. Car is a Freemont car.

Hmmmm different plants, slightly different positions??? Mine is a Baltimore car.

Nick, Mine is a Baltimore car also and I can take a photo of it tomorrow with some measurements if you still need it.
W#oops I edit it.:clonk:

Actually Nick needed it, now we prolly confused him and he won't be back:D

Mike,
It appears to me that mine is a lot like yours but jtm60's seems to be further from the outer edge. jtm60, Where was your car built?
My other 69 is a Kansas car but it's a rear antenna car.

Trooper

There is quite a bit of difference,, this car has the original hole in it with the slot and looks the same as troopers, not surprised. Thanx to all !!

I may have confused things here a bit...my car is baltimore built 69.

I said original gm fenders...not 100% sure of that the more I think about it-they sure look original on the insides, but..I think previous owner might have mentioned to me that fenders were replaced at some point with 'new' GM parts-no idea of when..so my fenders may not be truly original to the car. sorry if i confused anyone.
