The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area The Electrical Bay Fuse Block replacement

I'm getting closer to having the 64' finished and have done plenty of work under the dash to clean up the wiring. No matter how much work I've done, I still have trouble with fuses burning out due to some old and loose connections on the original fuse block. I've cleaned up all the contacts and found the pins worn enough that they are subject to vibration. Is there a vendor that anyone would recommend to supply a replacement fuse block that is the same as or close to being the same as the original? I'm not needing any new hook up points, just want to replace the one that is in there due to it's age.
Thanks

There are many fuse panels available but it wont be quit like the original. You can get a flat panel one through any parts store that has a choice of number of fuses. They are real resonable. The auto wire places have some nice ones. They use the new module type fuses & are kind of pricey. I can look up some part numbers tomorrow.

I have a 64 as well. I made a search for a fuse block to replace mine when I re-wired my harness. When I called American Autowire I was informed that if they sold the actual fusebox then why would they be in business. Can't really argue that. They did however sell me a couple of generic fuseboxes that I used instead. See attached (if I linked it correctly).

Rusty,
I've had my share of run ins with the folks at American Autowire. I was trying to do some rewiring on a 63', and was needing just the ends where the different leads connect at the firewall. They informed me they would sell me the entire harness, but not the ends. Needless to say, I've since done things different. They had a most unpleasant attitude when I talked with them on the phone. I've done a ton of work on this 64' and after replacing all of the other wiring, I've noticed that the fuse block has aged and is causing problems, and it would be best all around to just replace it as well.
I'll try and get to town in the next few days and do as Wrenchbender said and see if any of the FLAPS can help me find something that will do the job. Thanks to all for the help.
