Did Chevrolet dealers service individual wire ends? I know that most are available from different vendors. I have also wondered about the thick insulation that was used over the crimp of the connector as to how it was serviced. I have been using multiple layers of modern shrink tubing to make things look some better. The modern nylon coated terminals just don't do it for me. Thanks Don

I use the modern terminals after removing the plastic/nylon junk they put on them. (Can't stand the blue). I then use the shrink tubing to finish off the joint at the terminal. Looks very good when finished.
