Verne , were your wires solid core or carbon core?

I think Motion and others used hi temp orange solid core wire in the 1960s and early 1970's

On the Ramcharger wire shown...Is it 7mm wire or 8mm wire?

I have seen Mallory items in 7mm and 8mm wire and boots

The early Mallory Super Duty Boots came in a cardboard box
The ones shown here looks like have a later style packaging although may be the same boot.
same with the wires
some early wire came on a wire spool and you assembled both ends

They were solid core. I don't remember the size though. I forget if I got the wire from a roll or if they were pre-cut but I do remember having to attach the connectors and boots to the ends myself. I soldered the metal core to the clips. IT must have come as a kit because I remember having the 2 different boots for the coil wire.
I sold them (cheap) long ago but I may still have the coil wire tucked away somewhere.

PS: As for the boots, I honestly don't remember if they came in a box of on cardboard. I just remember I bought them at Motion in '69. Sorry about the memory.....
