Bhigdog Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Rhode Island Wiring sells period correct wire by the foot. Possibly they also can supply a finished harness...............Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friartuck Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 (edited) The Brillman company in Virginia is also a source for period correct wire (vinyl coated that is cloth covered). While rewiring your Briscoe, use adequate gauge wire (14 or 12 gauge) and make good terminal connections as discussed in this article: http://www.metroccca.org/tech_articles/tech_06_fall.pdf Edited October 20, 2012 by Friartuck (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Mellor NJ Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 AWG is actually "American" wire gauge, not "Average" wire gauge. Other countries use a different (metric) system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFranklin Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Restoration Supply has correct wire and armored wire also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
