Power antennas

Did all have power antennas or was that just on older Camaros? I have a 1991 vert and it has the regular GM fixed wand. Just wondering if someone swapped it in or if it is original.

Re: Power antennas

it was an option from the factory. My 92 RS has a wand and but then my 88 TA has a power attenna which now acts as a wand since the motor went haywire... And my 89 Formula has a wand as well....

Re: Power antennas

The option code is U75 and as TADailyDriver it was available the entire 3rd Gen run.Look on your SPID(make sure the VIN on it matches your car's)to see if mabe your 'vert had it and was maybe swapped out.My '83 Z28 came with it but i had to replace it due to a bad motor.

Re: Power antennas

Not mine, checked. THanks. I see those motors all the time on Ebay and it got me wondering but I am glad mine does not have it.
