How do you figure its "80s-90s"? You can still buy it anywhere 30-40 years later. What is the more "modern" replacement for it? The fabric stuff Painless sells looks like it comes from the '30s. It would look good on a 1929 Ford Model A! (no offense).

I figure 80-90s when I look at OLDER restorations from that time period. Ive used it before and it’s tough to make it look really good. The painless stuff (or similar) looks better imo. More like today’s modern harnesses. It’s an improvement over the 30’s stuff which doesn’t allow as easy access to the wires. Uncoil the loom wrap anywhere you want basically. It’s a matter of taste and opinion. Everyone has their reasons as clif stated in his post.


I bet it does look good on 30s cars. Especially since you can custom order weave patterns and colors.
