1936 Hudson 8 Wiring Diagram

I need help with the wiring on my English Hudson. The folks at Tech Wire were able to identify my Hudson from the photo's in The History of Hudson by Don Butler as a 1936 Hudson Stratton Saloon by Coachcraft of London England. The problem is that the car was a custom and "free wired" and did not use a wiring harness. They tell me that since the car has Right Hand Drive (gotta love those English) that a standard harness would not fit. This leaves me pretty much to myself to rewire. For the most part, the dash and engine will be much the same except length of wire. What I am looking for is a 1936 Hudson 8 Wiring diagram so I can follow along and get things as they should be (size of wire and colors used, etc.) and make up the difference in wire length when I head for the lights, horns etc... Wiring the inside cab and the wires for the english tail lights will also be free based wire. Anyone out there have a diagram they can copy and mail or electronically send?

Thanks,



Brownie:):)

    Brownie, you could go to the Hudson Literature Site http://www.hudsonterraplane.com/tech/tech_index.htm , click on the 1936-38 Mechanical Procedures Manual, then (at the index) choose the electrical section. This is broken into two parts; the electrical diagram you seek is in the second part (link is at the end of the first part).



    (Thank you Alex Burr and Greg Maroney, for making this available!)
