Default Where to buy harness wire

Does anyone know where I can buy the correct wire and cloth sheeting to rebuild a wiring harness. I don't know how cost effective it would be, but I'd like to see. Glen

Snyder's. I just received some wire and flag terminals for a project and the quality is great. The wire comes in an array of color coded lengths and is sold by the foot.

When we were at Bend Last year for Regional meet there was a seminar put on by a guy there who made looms etc...he had every wire known to man...I bet any MAFCA Bend Oregon member can point him out to you....

Just remember that nobody seems to make the wire exactly as original.

Sacramento Vintage Ford has the equipment to make the correct wiring and offers it in many colors/stripe patterns. They make all of their own wiring.

I thought I saved the picture that Marco posted with the differences in the original color pattern and the shapes of the terminal flags.

Although Sacramento Vintage Ford comes as close to original as anyone.
