In 1974 Our first Wiring Harness for Street Rods was introduced.
That system was basic, by the standards RON FRANCIS
WIRING is known for today. It did, however, meet Ron's
goals and served to prove that a
wiring system could be offered in kit form for the
do-it-yourselfer. We began to make wiring solutions
painless at RON FRANCIS WIRING. Many of the original
wiring kits are still in service today!
WIRE WORKS, was founded in 1974, and is a result of over 30 years of
experience in wiring street rods and developing electrical products
directly for street rod applications. Having attended the first NSRA
Street Rod National in Peoria in 1970 and being one of the first 100
members of the National Street Rod Association (#90), Ron Francis
is aware what help fellow Rodders can use with
what is often the least understood phases of street rod
construction ... the wiring system.
Over the years the WIRE WORKS systems have gone through
constant re-design to incorporate the latest technology in
both circuitry and materials, so that the system is compatible with
the latest in automotive trends. Today's EXPRESS PANEL, the
Dimension II, wiring system is just as suitable for a
state-of-the-art, high-tech street rod with all of the modern
electrical accessories as it is for one with just the basic
equipment. And, because the current EXPRESS PANEL system has been
designed with provisions for a full array of electrical accessories,
it will not be a problem to add them at a future time. This
philosophy is carried over to everything at the WIRE WORKS from
something as simple as a toggle switch to the insulation on the
wires themselves.
RON FRANCIS WIRING sells more than the EXPRESS and BARE BONZ PANEL
wiring systems. The RETRO is a great choice for cost conscious
buyers who want an easy to install and reliable, yet not include all
the bells and whistles that make Ron Francis Wiring the top name in
aftermarket wiring. We also sell individual components and installation
aids as well as a selection of mini-kits for specific applications
.... all designed and created so that the finished installation can
be customized to the user's preference and needs.
The development of special hardware to fit custom cars and trucks
has resulted in a variety of unique components, many of which have
earned prestigious awards for the WIRE WORKS from the National
Street Rod Association. In 1982 the WIRE WORKS Trans-mounted Neutral
Safety Switch received "Product of the Year" award, and the WIRE
WORKS Bright Bulbs were picked as the Best "Safety Product of the
Year" in 1985. In 1994 the Wire Works Crash Relay received another
Best "Safety Product of the Year" award, and our electric gear shift
indicator show what creative designers we have. RON FRANCIS WIRING
is a competitive participant in these programs every year and
maintains that status through design and development of new products
on a regular basis! |
