12V after contact, where ?

Hi,
My 12V after contact doesn't work in my Camaro Z28 1984.
Elecricity hasbeen modified by previous owners....
i actually have no 12v after contact, so i plugged my auto radio on permanent 12V , but it drains my batery, and also i want to re use the power antenna with my ACdelco radio with it's purple wire !
Where can i find a 12V after contact in my fuse box for this ?

Best Regards

Have you tried the extra slots in the fuse box that say IGN, located under the driver side dash left of the steering column?
You can simply use a spade connector of similar size to a fuse and plug right in. Since it's the ignition side it only provides power when key is on.
