Re-wiring Helen (55 1st series) Most everything is currently hardwired with no fuses. I started looking in catalogs for a fuse block. Most were $100-$170. I just happened to be looking thru my Cabelas Marine catalog and came across a fuse block, that accepts ATO fuses, 10 circuit, and a ground buss for $16.99, plus shipping. Ordered it and it s well made and compact. Just an FYI

Bought a 5-circut marine block that looks very much like the 4-circut original in my '56 (that was mashed and not used at all). At a glance I dont think most folks would notice other than it's real clean. Just had one more fuse position and a secondary unfused buss over the fused one. Got it off the shelf at West Marine for around $12. All corrosion resistant metals too.

I dig all cars, old and new, whether they were hammered out of American iron, German steel, or Japanese tin cans. Being unable to appreciate them all is missing out on a world of great things.
But thats just MY opinion!

Have you got a part number for that Cabelas Marine fuse box?

I put the similar 6 fuse version in my 53 a few years ago, good block, easy to deal with.
I think this is it..
