90 restoration
#32

Brenda,

Getting back to your remark: I am not sure how I even could run the caps' wires to the connections directly - they are not long enough, except the first one, as you can see the very first connection does in fact have the cap's wire going straight to it but then it is close enough, otherwise they won't reach...unless you have some unusually long-leaded caps. If you do, then there's nothing wrong with running them straight with some heat-shrink for insulation, and it would look quite nicely, I think.

I actually first thought of re-using the wires that were there but then I was not sure what was going on with the insulation, and whether it was in fact insulation or some tar...it was uneven and I even thought I could see the bare wire through it in some spots, so I discarded it and re-wired the whole thing.
