    I'm getting ready to re-wire my '56 and am looking for wire harness covering suggestions that would look more period correct or just plain better than corrugated plastic. Any body got any ideas?

    Seems I've seen some braided type of covering but don't know the source.

    Thanks!

    I like Painless Wiring Power Braid, much better looking than that plastic corrigated ****.
    In this picture you can see it on my fuel line and heater hoses. I will try and get you a better picture actually on my wiring, haha.

    Powerbraid wasn't actually designed to go on the hoses but I thought it looked good with everything matching.

    Thanks guy's, as you can see in some of the pictures it wasn't running, the intake isn't bolted down.it is running now, but now if I could only find the time and funds to get the rest of the cars done, haha.
