Original 75 164 Electronic Plug Wires 140-160

posted by  someone claiming to be Gary Innes on  Fri May 16 20:54 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Greetings All!!!
I need info on the spark-plug wires fitted to the 1975 164--
the only year with electronic ignition.
First--color??? All the factory photos I've seen show the
75 wires as red. Yet, recently, a supposedly knowledgeable source
has told me that the wires were BLUE!
Secondly--construction??? The 75 wires had special 'resistor
boots' on both the plug end & the distributor end--correct???
Does anyone out there have a genuine, original (NOT Aftermarket)
75 wire set in his/her hot little hand, so they can speak with
authority on this point???
All accurate info appreciated.

Gary in Arizona--with two 164's.
