Maybe they didn't use a standard AM radio coax? My experience in the the early 1970s was having to swap that coiled core coax on an old car to get any VHF-FM reception. The cassette-Radios and other radios with FM had series loading coils for MW / LW and thus tuned up better on AM too with the cable swapped.
Really very likely a TV coax was installed.
Indeed at typical 13V the 8A is closer to two headlamps! Perhaps a mistake. I never heard of 100W each headlamps.
I bet more Silver Wraiths are operational than Ekco portables. Also the operational environment is still compatible for a 1955 car, but was turned off in 1985 for the 1955 TVs, which is over 45 years ago.
