We are lucky to have the last cave to found some CMP Parts.
For example theses 8 wires have de same part number C21A 12284 . All are the long wire , but the rest of the 7 cable sizes no longer remain.

A question to the group!
All these cables are hardened by time.
Is there any technique to soften them up and keep them fresh?
Thanks in advance!
Regards

I very much doubt that these wires are of any use other than as patterns or sources of fittings. The insulation will be very unreliable even if you can straighten them. Great find though !

Thanks David for your reply!
Someone has told me that with steam or heat gun they could be softened and straightened ..
