You might try the Thunderbird parts suppliers. Hills, Cisco,NPD,or try Google if those don't work. I work think any of those could help you.The local auto supply store only sells straight boot wires. I am replacing 90 degree wires. Does anybody carry the correct 90 degree boots? I do not want to "cut my own", tried it once- did t work out.

I would try another auto parts sore. Usually, you can go online to their websites & see photos of them. I know that Rock Auto carries several brands with 90 degree boots.The local auto supply store only sells straight boot wires. I am replacing 90 degree wires.

Wow. They look like distributor cap boots. They shouldn't have melted. I'm not sure what would cause that. You may want to check the inside of the cap, rotor, & points, & check the voltage at the points with the ignition on.Called Hills, ordered a set. $75, cheaper than the $96 I paid earlier today. Im fairly new to working on this car, Hills was new to me.
By the way, these are two of the "reasons" Im replacing the wires.
