I've replaced every wire I could reach in my '53 Victoria, and I got all the harnesses and wiring from Tyree Harris.

Tyree Harris
2693 Crewsville Road
Bumpass, Virginia 23024
804-556-5200

He's a great guy to deal with, and he's always got time to answer your questions over the phone. His harnesses are gorgeous and look like the originals but have modern wire inside. He also has the small stuff like harness tape (it's not black electrical tape), connectors, etc.

Rhode Island Wire is as good as it gets. They ship all over the world for just about any car or truck made. I re -did my 37 from front to back and everything fit as original. I had my turn signals incorperated into my harness and they gave me detailed instructions and diagrams of t he added wires.

Bill, how's your backlog on shock repair? I need four rebuilt.

Rhode Island wiring for me too. Nothing against anyone else as I never tried them, but RI worked great for me.

Dave D · 06-09-2011, 01:33 AM

I bought two harnesses from both Tyree and RI and the only difference I could tell was the RI one was almost twice the price.

There's not really a town named BumpAss, is there? Or, perhaps it's BumPass?

Mike, that's about 13 miles south of Cuckoo, VA.
