We'll I battled the question of who to go with when it came down to wiring my latest project. I have used others in the past with success, but was intrigued to find out more about AAW. After contacting Theresa, see had me talk to Michael Manning, owner of AAW. Once I was a little more educated on their products and how they are built, it was a no brainer IMO. I ordered their Hwy 22 kit & a few other accessories they have to offer. Their products showed up about week later. Let me just say the workmanship alone is the best I have even seen IMO. Everything about their products SCREAM quality.
If you are in the market for a wiring kit. Give AAW some serious consideration before pulling the trigger. Great products and even better people to deal with!! :thumbsup:
I enclosed pics, but like the saying goes.."Pics don't do it justice"

I saw another endorsement for them elsewhere and that too was shining. I will have to look them up and price them out when I get ready to wire my '70 'Bird.

Looks like we ordered the same kit. I couldn't be happier with the quality. Did you talk with him about Ground Wire/Straps for the car. Man did i get an education there. They are one of the best companies IMO.
Thanks for the comments, guys! I REALLY appreciate you sharing your story and experiences with others about our products.
Brent - please keep me posted with photos of your car - I love it!
If I can help any of you, feel free to call me direct 800-482-WIRE (I'm extension 29) or email me at Theresa"at"americanautowire.com. I'd be happy to help however I can.
Again...thank you.

You would not believe how many hot rods we fix because of grounding issues...............people miss the boat HUGE and the vehicle suffers and runs like crap everytime. I have had cars increase 1/4 mile times cause their electrical system sucks.........not huge but every little bit helps..........
Ground is where it all starts............with out it you got nothing......

I did get educated very well with their products. Michael and I talked about lot of things including grounds. I work for a Utility Power Company, so I know the importance of proper grounding. As some have said, grounding is everything. I'll re-iterate once again, First Class operation over there @ AAW.
I'll keep you posted with progress Theresa. Thanks again for the help.

:D :D :D Theresa - You're killing me!! Hanging me out to dry like that. A little inside joke for those wondering... Maybe we should let Scott elaborate on this one? Or then again maybe we shouldn't :_paranoid

Ill have to second that they make a great product, my only problem was dealing with all the wires they incorperated for all the stuff i dont have (0 options) Definately changed my view on how hard electrical work CAN be.

I purchased the 2 front wiring harness for my car 10 years ago or so....Great stuff. Will be getting the LED rear light harness in the future as "cash" permits. Must stay away from the credit card....
