Bill, is that a power antena on the back quarter ?  I always like the antena on the back instead of the front fender. I see that U73 option code for a manual on the rear for 69. I think when I get that far I will move mine from the front to the rear.

good eye ian ` that is a power antenna but not correct. your right on the documantation it shows U73 manual autenna, but it doesn`t say rear

 

---

In the package from GM they gave me the option list for 69 Beaumonts and it says for option U73  (rear mounted manual antena) so you have it in the correct location for your car.

this is a GM documented COPO Chevelle frost green, same as limelight, with a black SS stripe.  I'm assuming the rules are the same.
