I purchased an all (mostly) original 1934 Chevrolet that has been stored for 35 years, had motor rebuilt, runs great but have a dead short, In the steel jacket wire protector (of ignition to coil), I see bare wires, how do you take that off the steel jacket?, so I can replace the wire.

Here is an old post on this topic. It is not specific to your vehicle year but I assume should be similar and point you in the area of removing the ignition switch and fishing the switch through the firewall, then replacing the wire.
1946 1/2 Ton Ignition

Good luck, Mike

Note that the method used on 1933 and 1934 coils is somewhat different than 1935 and up. I have been searching for the Info.

Thanks for the info. That sounds exactly like my problem, and that's kind of what I thought, now I can tackle it knowing there is no other way. Huge help

Thank you all again,
Sincerely, Mike

Thanks for all the help on the 1934 chevy wiring problem. finished this afternoon, it hasn't snowed yet (so no salt here in Michigan). just got back from checking out Christmas lights, tonight
