Where do y'all find electrical connectors for these old cars?  The plastic shield on the connector for the water temp sensor is broken.  Half of it is missing.  I could just tape it or heat shrink it, but would rather use the correct part.  Is there a source out there that supports this old stuff?

Thanks

I think Lectric Limited sells a temp sensor repair lead.

Was that the style that is sort of like a screw head that slides on from the side?

I always wondered what the logic was behind that design and why temp senders seemed to be the only place they really used em.   Seems like someone also used them on ignition coils but there it made more sense since it was a big C shaped body to span the width of the coil.
