'69 Riv- final puzzle pieces

[Randy'sRiv]

Hello again, guys... been very helpful in the past, so thanks again in advance.

I'm down the final stretch on a restoration that's taken me many years... Somewhere along my many moves I lost the entire POWER ANTENNA and I'm wondering if anybody has one in working condition or could direct me to a manufacturer who makes a direct fit.

Also, my PASSENGER QUARTER WINDOW chrome is in terrible shape, so I'm looking for a new one.

One other piece I'll need eventually is the radio BEZEL that runs all the way across below the dash.

Lemme know if anyone's got Riv parts out there... thanks.

No one makes any repro antennas, or quarter glass chrome, so your looking at good 'used'. As for the long dash radio bezel piece, again your probably looking for good 'used', that may hafta be replated (vacuum chrome plate), and a new wood grain panel added - '68 pieces are identical, and will fit. The exception being the '68 radio bezel, that has a brushed satin aluminum insert instead of the wood grain insert. :TU:

I figured the bezel and quarter window had to be used... just not sure about the power antenna. I'm guessing my best option is to rig a universal power antenna into place.
It's annoying because I know I saw the old power antenna around somewhere before my last move... did a frame-off restore and had to move 3 times. I guess I should be happy I didn't lose more stuff.
Thanks for the info on the radio bezel- somebody cut the left knob out to put a tapedeck in somewhere along the line, so it's impossible to fix without fabricating the round-chrome-hole the knob goes through.
Thanks

Evilbay is also a good source for used parts, and for cars being parted out, so keep checking regularily, or hopefully, someone here may have what you need. I know the frustration, having gone through a full resto on my '68 !! :TU:
