Note the location of the antenna, and if the mirrors are the LAT 69 shown on the papers.

Over the years I've seen several Tigers and Alpines with the antenna installed in the rear valance. It's a lot of work to run the coax from that point to the radio. If you have the interior kick panels out of the car and you look at the box at the top of the opening you'll find a round opening about an inch in diameter. Mount the antenna on the outside above that opening and the coax drops down thru that opening. Makes you think that was the reasoning behind the opening which makes getting the coax to the radio a lot easier.Dealers did the install on both the mirrors and the radios and antennas. Back in the day there were car stereo shops that sold and installed all manner of upgrade items. The car was hawked on the Fake book page for over a year whenever someone said that they were looking for a car or selling one. It seemed pretty well known that they were asking 45,000 . It had a Hipo motor pulled out and a 289 put in . Don't recall seeing a lot of build details on it either. The retail sale price seems ok but no details on the rest of the drivetrain fixes either or if Dad played Lego with the transmission and rear end but you get two axles in this deal. Hopefully one is the right one.
