    Hello new to the group. I have a 1970 A100 with 318 and 727 trans. Bought it from a guy in maywood. It was in their family for at least 15 years. Now it is part of our family project. My name is Jeremy and I live in Ventura Ca.

    Indeed Jeremy, welcome and nice looking early. I especially like the idea of the family beach van. The Ventura coast is wonderful.

    Nice! Love the rims. I see you have antenna holes in the front (like I do). Any ideas on a replacement antenna? I don't have any...

    NAPA sells a replacement antenna that is really close to the original A-100 antennas. I'll post a pic and p/n tonight when I get home from work.
