Where does one buy the armored wire like what ran to the headlights for a 28, or what have others used to replicate the look?
The first picture is of the wire I am referring to in case armored isn't it's proper name. The second is the interesting tab that splits the wire from one to two for each light, located at the front cross member passengers side.

David_S you can try here. They made a complete wire harness for my '25 sedan about 20 years ago. I had the option of with or without the armored casings.

I actually found a place this morning that didn't come up in my searching before. brillman.com does old tractor wiring harnesses and has a 5/32" id steel conduit in stainless steel. Many other sizes also as well as wire, and other supplies. I think unless someone has some nos stuff around I think that may be as close as I come. They also have Delco Remy tags and stuff for Chevy cars and trucks. Harness only back to 29 though.
