Sedan Antennas

Post by timk11 »

Sedans came with 2 types of antennas. The first being used on the
early sedans which are a 1 piece stainless wire which retracts inside
a plastic tube in the door post. The second type was a sectional
variety which originally would retract down so far you used a flat
metal key to withdraw it from the recess. Good luck finding either,
BUT you can get a sectional antenna at any parts store which will
work just fine.
I believe the coupe antennas are same as the '73 Civic and should
also be available cheaply.
The original radio brand was Boman - someone asked. I also somewhere
have radio installation instructions for sedan, radio operating
manuals which I will scan and reprint, window price stickers that I
will delete the numbers from and you can type in your own VIN
numbers. All will be available shortly.

Hi,
My Honda Z has a chromed antenna fitted at the right side of the
roof. As it was in a bad shape, a friend located the same antenna new
for almost 10$.
And about the radios, the brand is Boman or Bowman?
See you

The Honda 600 sedan I am working on has the hole for an antenna on
the LEFT side of the roof. I think all 3 of my sedans are set up
this way. No antenna in there, just a rubber plug in the spot that I
assume was to be used for an antenna. My radio is missing too, but a
small chassis radio will be put in for the new tunes.
Still looking for a left side mirror. I need at minumum the stalk
and head. The aluminum mount is still there. Has anyone tried
cutting down a motorcycle mirror? It looks like it would work.
One of my Honda sedans has a console, a fancier steering wheel, and a
paint job that is a bit on the wild side (original) Whas this some
kind of option that Honda had?
