Title: 1970 Mustang Antenna Cable
Post by: D0ZZ70MACH on February 14, 2016, 10:33:42 PM
Hello all.

I'm hoping that someone can help me identify the correct antenna cable that plugs into the radio on one end and the antenna on the other end for a Dearborn built '70 Mustang with R/H side front fender mounted antenna.  I have 3 cables in hand but all are different.

Cable #1 (used, original?) is 45" long and has Ford oval script logo, #4 and a stripe all in yellow.

Cable #2 (NOS C9ZZ-18812-A but may or may not be original to the packaging) is 45" long and has Ford oval script logo, #6 and 473 all in white (no stripe).

Cable #3 (NOS) is 35" long and has FoMoCo logo and #6 all in white and also a piece of yellow tape wrapped around it.

Any help would be much appreciated.  Thanks!  Aaron

Hi, for what it's worth, I just checked 2 NOS antennas (in original AM radio kits) ant they match the #2 antenna cable you listed (Ford oval script,#6,473, all  in white)

I have an original bagged "in the trunk" antenna but it's pretty buried, I'll try and dig it out and also check it..

Thanks John.

The cable on my NOS bagged "in trunk" antenna also has the Ford oval script,#6,473, all  in white. 

I am looking for information about the other cable that attaches the to the back of the radio.  Any information would be much appreciated.

Hi, Aaron, the cables I checked were the intermediate cables (Ford oval script,#6,473, all  in white) , they are also in the bag with the antenna in the radio kits. I'll post a pic later today...
