Ross: I think the nicest harnesses are PVC with braided coverings on all
the wires in the appropriate color codes and the harness itself in the
black with white markings. I think it will cost more to cover your harness

I don't have Ross' email yet but a couple of comments: Shadetree Motors
(Skip Kelsey) doesn't manufacture wiring harnesses, he is a Moss distributor
and probably donated the harness to the GoF auction. The color codes and
wire will be the same as if you bought a fabric braided harness from Moss.
It only cost me $75 bucks to have a TD harness that I modified braided for
my Arnolt ... the place is in central Pennsylvania and he advertises in
Hemmings. My Arnolt scrap book is out right now on loan to another potential
sucker er make that restorer so I can't lay hands on the exact name. TC's
had braided harnesses as original and that looks best. He can braid over the
vynil covering or with a little work you can unwrap it. just tape it at
every branch point and send to Pa. That is what I did and it came out very
nice.
