Any details on tracing the roof antenna wire would be appreciated. Also, the proper method of attaching the antenna to the roof.

Here is an older thread having a few photos of a 22-23 series roof antennapackardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb ... ic.php?post_id=229890&keywords=roof+antenna and this illustration from an old Yesterday's Radio catalog shows a bit on the layout of pieces. I believe the wire goes straight down the center divider and thru a hole in the sheet metal then heads over toward the drivers side of the radio and plugs in low on the side of the case.

Lavine Restorationclassiccarreproductions.com/store/ bought Yesterday's repro plastic business and still makes or sells some of the radio pieces.
