I pieced mine together and I am down to the under dash harness and all are replaced. I guess I'll do it when I get the vintage air system. What crimper are you looking for? I might have it.

Here is a few links to a crimper that I use. I was in the wiring department at a previous company I worked at, while the tools AAW had to rent are the premium hand crimp tools, these can be used with very good results. I have a set and have done a few cars with them and they work well. For terminals with the crimp on the wire and one on the insulation, it requires you to do them separately, but does a good job. You have to decide which "slot" to use for the wire size you are doing, but that is no big deal. I have bought from Waytek before and they are a good company. There are other places to get them too.

Thanks guys for all the great comments. I really enjoy having my boys around the shop and hopefully it will be great memories and plant the seed. I grew up in my Grandpa's machine shop and around all his cars, and trucks and boats. I have very found memories of working with him and learning about everything from painting to woodworking.

John I am looking for the Delphi Packard F type terminal single and double crimpers.

Aggie91 thanks for all the great links. Still researching and trying to figure out what to do. At this point I really want to buy my own.
