Hey all,

So I thought finding some "period correct" appearing sparkplug wires for my 1941 235 should be easy... There are a wide variety of wires out on the market, so many that it is hard to determine the correct ones that the old truck would have had back in 1941. Thus far my searching though manuals for at least an image has produced little evidence.

I believe the OEM style at the time was a copper core 7mm cable with a black cotton lacquer jacket and exposed plug terminals at somewhere around a 90 degree angle.

Can any of you all help me with some documentation or source?

Thanks!

Paul

Several of the typical suppliers have the original style. Some of the best reproduction sets are available from Brillman, and they have repair pieces (terminals, boots):

Doug,

Thanks for the information and link. The Brillman Company does look like a good source. Much appreciated!
