Wire Ties and Radios

Post by artrite »

Hi All,
I'm in the process of doing a complete restoration on a 1969 124 Spider and I'm trying to find the white (or were they clear?) ladder shaped wire ties that plug into holes in the engine compartment. I'm also looking for a backplate and knobs for my radio labeled Fiat by Astrosonix (made by Boman). Or a complete radio from the 1969ish vintage. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I had the same problem with the zip ties when I was restoring SPYDUH a few years ago. The best I could come up with were these -

I found them ar an Auto-electrical workshop. Wrong colour, wrong design, but same function and SPYDUH was never intended to be a restoration where originality was a high priority. :wink:
