I’ve a 1941 Ford 1/2 Pickup and would greatly appreciate consensus on which vendor you recommend to explore purchasing a complete wiring harness to replace existing. After 80 plus years, it’s time. The electrical system has been converted to 12 volt system otherwise I believe it to be original. Sincerely appreciate your recommendation.
Thank you!

Rhode Island wiring (401) 789-1955 IF you are wanting concourse correct.

If you don't care about looks get a hot rod EZ harness, all wires are marked and turn signals included.

Top notch and they can customize it according to your needs such as turn signals.

Bauer used to only sell to parts sources. I didn't know that they sell direct. Most sources sell their products. Rhode Island Wire coats their wire to protect it from fade of the colors.

X’s 2 for Y n Z. They added the turn signal circuit in the harness on the Tonner.

My vote also for Bauer like ssffnomad. Chris will make it any way you want, Dearborn correct, turn signals added, or custom like on my 32 5w, running a 59 series engine and put a Vreg on the passenger side of the firewall. I have 2 40s, and a 32 5w with Chris's harnesses, everything fit, 2 Dearborns with the my 40 wagon. Never a problem. He is also not that far from me and is very prompt about shipping stuff out.
