Tyree Harris or Sacramento Vintage Ford. Both of these manufacture a very nice harness.

Does anybody carry a complete harness for the whole car? I noticed a couple places sell everything separately.

The lighting harness with the contact plate is the main big harness. By design the other few small harness or wires need to be seperate.

I got mine from Bratton's: for a 1930 Canadian Roadster: includes cowl lights and turn signals. Easy install: works well.

I would think that if you called a vendor and said "I need all the harnesses for a Model A with single/dual tail lights, with/without cowl lights, with/without turn signals, they could pull what you need.

Off the top of my head I'll try to list them all

1. Main light harness (includes headlamp and taillight)
2. Generator to terminal box harness
3. Instrument panel harness
4. Coil feed wire to terminal box
5. Battery cables
6. Popout cable
7. Distributor lower plate flex wire
8. Ignition coil wire
9 Spark plug leads

That's all the wiring that comes to mind, but you are probably only looking at the first 4 when you think of wiring harness to rewire the car.
