Hey all, I am looking for a working power antennae unit specifically for an 87 TC, but I am thinking that this unit was not exclusive to just the Thunderbird/Cougar of those years. I just don't know what years or what makes will cross reference with mine. I haven't had the time yet to determine if it is just the tooth cable and mast or if the entire unit needs to be replaced. I just can't get time from work long enough to devote time to the project. Would really like to have the parts on hand when I do tear it apart so I can put it back together at the same time. I have found several on Ebay that say "will fit Thunderbird" but none that are specific. Found several for the LTD/Taurus, and many for the 89 and newer cars.
Thanks
I am getting ready to pull the one out of my 83. I was told it worked when I got the car but havent powered it up yet to test. I do not plan to use the radio so its being pulled to save more weight.
If you can verify its the same unit used in a 87 I can verify mine still works.
10-80, Have you checked the CoolCats site? At 1 time they had a chart of parts that crossed over from year to year. Not sure if it would be listed but worth a shot or Eric may know the answer. Good luck on the search.
I have one. It was on a parts car and I ran it up and down a few times to make sure that it worked. I will ship it to you for $40.
