History

The business of Vintage Wiring Harness was initially a small importing concern bringing wiring looms from the USA for restorers of 1920s vehicles, mostly Chevrolets. Alan and Heather Taylor bought this business and soon discovered from customer enquiries that looms were not available for RHD American vehicles, and those available for British vehicles were only made in modern materials, usually for their own home market with no ability to customise. There was a demand for a local manufacturer.

So from there, Alan and Heather set about sourcing the equipment and materials required to make their own looms. They established a process that accurately records the details of manufacture of every loom that came into their possession and then set about developing the library. Thirty years on, Vintage Wiring Harness still develops an average of fifty new patterns a year to add to the ever - expanding range, now well over a thousand models are covered.

Australia is noted internationally for it’s high quality of restoration work, often because our generally hot dry climate ensured the vehicles had been fairly well preserved anyway. Many professional restorers in Australia have a constant stream of vehicles being sent to them from all over the world for restoration. Many of these vehicles are fitted with our looms, and from those we export ourselves we know our harnesses end up in many corners of the globe.

In late 2005 it was time for a change and Alan and Heather retired, selling the business to Paul Vermont. Paul has been a car enthusiast for many years and was looking to mix this interest with a new venture. As it turns out it was to be a good fit.

The tradition of high quality lives on as we continue to expand the range of products and service offered by Vintage Wiring Harness. We are proud to be custodians of the knowledge accumulated over the years and will ensure high quality original style looms are available to the classic car enthusiast for years to come. It is a real pleasure talking to enthusiasts about their passion so please feel free to call us to discuss your needs.

We don’t claim to know every marque in detail, but when it comes to wiring, we think we make the best quality looms and hope you do too.
