John Loney Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Hello, I need some help finding a set of spark plug wires for my '39 Imperial (straight eight). I have just bought a Pertronix ignition and coil and they cannot be used with solid core spark plug wires...must be spiral core...Does anyone know where I can get a set of spiral core wires to fit this car without having to make my own? I would much prefer the pre made wires with the boots and ends already attached. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty_OToole Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) Any good auto parts store should have a rack of individual wires. Measure your old ones and get the same lengths. Failing that they should have a universal fit set that can be cut to length. Save the old wires if they are in decent shape in case you or someone else wants to go back to original.
