Asking because I recently bought an 85 Targa. It has a power antenna on the fender. So I'm wondering if it came this way, or someone added the antenna. I'm not sure if it has a windshield antenna.

That's a very good question. when looking at the PET it shows the windshield with antenna only applicable to the 85+ cars.
when you look at the fender antenna it doesn't provide any year specific information.
I always had the assumption that all 85+ came with the windshield antenna. the 85+ windshield part numbers also cross over to the 87-89 parts catalog.
However if you look at the 87-89 catalog is does list a fender antenna, but it also specifies it is specifically for the Speedster. the speedster of course uses a dedicated windshield so that one it appears was not produced with the integral antenna. for the standard 911 windshield, it never specifies with or without antenna, so it must be assumed that all standard 911s had the antenna in the windshield during that time.
