Never worked on a Model "T" but did have to install some plug wires on a
Model "A".
The original wires from the magneto to the plugs was a flat strip about
a quarter inch wide, probably copper but I'm not sure.
It was not included when we got the car and new parts for cars like that
were impossible to find.
A little Yankee ingenuity and the wire leads off some electrical
dynamite caps that the old man stored in an old Bull Durham sack stuck
up over the stable door and we had the old Ford up and running in
nothing flat. Not much cabling required in those days !
When you get bored some day look up how to bundle cables using that old
wax cord that Russ is talking about.......... you'll rapidly develop an
appreciation for zip ties !
