What makes this noise?

Whenever I turn my car either on or off (both) I hear a noise that sounds like a power antenna raising or lowring...but I dont have a power antenna (I dont even think our cars came with them at all) its not EVERY time I turn it on or off but damn near...just wondering what it could be...I cant even tell where its coming from

That would probably be your fuel pump.

...and MY '86 TA came out of the box with a power antenna (RPO code U75):

So did mine, 86 TA as well.

Vader, does yours still work, and if so have you replaced it?

I had an '84 Z28 with a power antenna. Didn't work, though.
