37' Terraplane wiring

Unknown

Was there any covering for the wires leading thru and over the radiator to the headlights?

My unrestored '37 Terraplane has a braided cover, faded, was probably black

Thanks, Bill. Does anyone make a reproduction of this material? Or have this material?

There are companies that reproduce wiring harnesses, and since the harnesses are in sections (there is not one connected 'harness' for the entire car) my guess is that the companies would be able to make up one or two components for you. The wire is modern neoprene-covered wire but is covered with authentic color-coded cloth covering and individual wires are bunded in the black cloth loom material.



The companies are: Y and Z's (in California), Narragansett, and Rhode Island Wiring (both of the last two companies are in Rhode Island). You can type these into your search engine and you can get their webpages, undoubtedly.
