I have a 66 SS Chevelle Convert.....I'm replacing the wiring in the car with new harnesses......There is one wire I can't idenify....it runs from the fuse block to the back of the car with the antenna (Rear Mount) it's blue......is this maybe a wire for a power antenna that the car had at some time in it's past?????
Thanks
Ken :confused:

Rear mount power antenna was an option for 66. It's probably for that.

I hate to disagree, but I'm 99% sure that it is for the rear speaker.

didn't the speaker wires have stripes? how about a luggage compartment light, or trunk release i think they were available. sorry i don't have ele. specs. eailer than 69.
how difficult is that project.

I will agree with Ken67...

I had a power rear antenna out of a 1966 Malibu. It had a separate two wire connector, and neither wire was blue... I think they were black and white, but its been a while...

could it be for a light in the trunk or a defroster?
