1936 Ford Philco Radio
#1

       

I have a 1936 Ford Philco radio installed in my 1935 Ford Fordor.[/font][/size][/color]

how would you recommend connecting the coax cable wire coming from the radio to the roof antenna (chicken wire under the cloth roof)? It works great, but I haven’t been able to figure out a way to connect the antenna where it stays in place—tape just doesn’t hold it. It has the original connector to the roof. I also have another male connector that matches the male connector from the roof—don’t have a female connector to connect the two male connectors. Photos are attached.

1. There is a female connector with the coax cable from the radio—note the two pictures—one showing a side view of the female connector with the coax cable connected to one end and another picture showing the open end of the connector which looks like it would take some type of a pin connector.

2. The picture with the clutch and brake in the background shows the original male connector from the roof antenna. Another not connected male connector part is shown in a picture with the green antenna wire curled up. One other picture shows the two male connectors next to each other—I don’t have a female connector to join the two male connectors.

What do I need to connect the roof antenna?
