I am pulling the trigger on a complete wire harness for my 66 coupe. I just went through the search gig and found 1 reference so now I need to know - is this as good as Painless? I was doing the research to confirm the painless approach but at $413, Ron is looking good - who else has installed Ron Francis and how was it??????

 

im dieing to know the answer to this question also. seems like high quality also but i want to kno how the install went.!

 

give us a little help here guys

 

Never used them but I have heard only good comments about francis. Try a search.

 

I have used 3 of his kits on 3 different cars that I have built ('37 Ford Tudor slant back, '53 Studebaker coupe, and a '32 3window coupe) and helped a buddy install one on his 53 F1 pickup. His quality is very good. I experimented and tried to burn some of his wires with a torch and they are very resistint to fire. I tried some wire I had bought at Radio Shack and the insulation almost immediately started smoking and falling off the wire. The instructions take you through the installation of one major circuit at a time so you don't become overwelmed by the number of wires. I have not used any other manufactures installation kits so I can't judge them but you'll get no complaints from me. I'm currently working on a '70 fastback and was amused by the location of its fuse box on the firewall and behind the clutch pedal. I am now wondering if I should order a kit from Ron Francis for my '70. I have not even looked to see what he has to offer for the mustang but if I did order one I would order the extra long wire option and put the fuse box in the trunk like I did for my '32. Its easy to get to and I don't think there is an issue with running the wires back there. Now understand I am completely tearing this car apart and am not going back stock so the wireing will not be problematic for my project.

 

Thanks guys, Ron Francis is looking better all the time!
