The Ford Barn

masterdave · 05-09-2013, 12:49 PM

As I posted in my other thread I will be putting a new alternator/generator (have not decided the route im going yet) in my car. There is currently no wiring in the car for a veriety of reasons. Does any one have a clear version of the schematics for the car. The only copy I have is in my Model A restorers guide and its a bit unclear. Does any one have one in color or one that they have made?

Also, where can I source original style wire?

Regards
Dave

Sacramento Vintage Ford can supply you with the cloth covered wire and / or complete wiring harnesses. They do a great job.

Instead of trying to re-create what is already available at reasonable price AND correctly color coded to the diagram supplied by Mike V. do as CarlG has suggested.
