I get my cloth-covered wire from Radio Daze.

I used to buy it from Antique Electronic Supply. I stopped buying things from them when they shifted focus to guitar amps and started dropping their vintage radio offerings. No, I'm not boycotting them or anything like that; it simply became more convenient to buy from Radio Daze as they had more of the stuff I needed than AES did.

But anyway, following Bob's link, I am surprised to find that they still sell cloth-covered wire.

I should go back to AES and get some of those 8 uF Solen caps for some of my earlier Philcos (70 and two 90s, among others) that still need to be restored.

Back on subject...Alan, you asked about whether or not to replace all of the wiring. If the wiring is in good shape, I would leave it alone. I would only replace wires that have crumbling insulation.
