AWeb80 Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 I took my stock one off to put a car cover on it over the winter a few years ago...and never put it back on....now its bent.....i want something different. I'm thinking about designing a antenna for the GP....about 8-10" tall and have the Pontiac emblem at the top of it.... it will be about an 1/8" thick and of course, powdercoated black. i'm drawing up a sketch now in autocadd. what do you all think?...should i go through w/ it?

Rdrckt_92 Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 I think it would be a cool idea, How big would the pontiac emblem be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWeb80 Posted January 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 How big would the pontiac emblem be? dunno....still working that out...gonna print it off in one-to-one scale and see what looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby1870 Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 something like this? http://www.corvettepartz.com/992004-shorty-antenna-p-20.html I wonder if those vette ones will work on our cars? I mean surely they used the same thread pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWeb80 Posted January 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Yes Robby, something like that....but then have the Pontiac Emblem at the top of it. i'll need to machine a base w/ the threads and everything and then attatch the antenna to the base so it will screw on.

Euro Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 whoa...what the hell is with the old sigs? and IIRC they make antenna's like this. with the pontiac emblem in the middle of the antenna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terryk2003 Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 i wanted to do the shorty antenna on the cutlass...i dunno how it would look with the emblem in it though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 cutlass? come on terry, this is "old sig flashback" not "talking like we're in 2005" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q-Ball Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 I'm assuming your antenna isnt power and didnt go down when you turned off the car? Anyways, GTP_Munky wanted to shave the antenna and get get a digital one and hide it somewhere inside the car. I think thats the best idea.

jeremy Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 I would just completely shave the antenna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GP1138 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 That would be pretty cool. Would there just be like a plastic emblem up there, or would the antenna be physically bent into the arrowhead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 something like this, but with an arrowhead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intern8tion9l Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 imo, cool idea but i think the emblem would be better on the bottom or in the middle so it didn't look too top heavy. or like those things you can just slide over the top of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWeb80 Posted January 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 something like this, but with an arrowhead? just like that.....i'm still debating....i'll shave it eventually...when the car gets repainted and i got Turbo 3400.....whenever that is....
