main wiring loom replacement

Post by IXXIfan »

Hi All
I have a 2.0 69 car with MFI that I'm preparing as a racer. The old loom that I've removed is well past it's best and I was wondering if anyone can recommend a supplier/manufacturer for a replacement? I just couldn't see any way of getting it out other than cutting it around the rear tunnel access area so I could pull the wires from the engine bay out and the rest out from the front of the tunnel near the pedals. How the H*** did they get it in in one piece or did they put the plugs on after the wires were in??

there was a guy in Germany that sold looms for the cars and he makes out they are the dogs for the car..

have a search He is based in Germany and I remeber him on the ebay site under loom for a 356 Pre A

have a look from time to time, I may have some emails from him somewhere..

I think the 54 was $650 I think...

I removed mine in much the same way . Although there was a thread on here describing how to do it if your were re using.

Again my car will be a "racer" with minimum electrikery except that needed for an MOT.

I intend to wire my own lights etc and employ an auto electrician to connect basic instrumentation and ignition.
