Wire connector for temperature sender - 60 Olds

I need to replace the plastic wiring connector on my temperature sender/sensor (see pictures) on my 60 Olds -- wires are frayed and the plastic connector has seen better days. Does anyone know where I can find this? Fusick's doesn't have. Have checked with various parts suppliers and on a few parts cars and am coming up empty.

Many thanks,
Mark

Replace the wires as far as possible and find some 2 connectors that fir the sensor to replace the one you pictured.

That is what I would do, unless this is a concourse restoration.

Is it not possible to slide the wires forward, and out of the plastic cover housing, clean up the contacts, install new wire leads and put it all back together again?

1959 - 1962 OLDS Temperature Sender

And even the ++ CORRECT ++ Temperature Sender is difficult to find --
N.O.S. ONLY -- it is obsolete from all regular channels...

I have the ++ CORRECT ++ Temperature Sender -- as far as wires -- you will have to custom cut your own -- or splice --
