old wires need to be replaced.

I need to replace all the wires in the engine compartment and under the car in my 1947 Clipper. The insulation just crumbles when I take off the wrapping. Many wires were repaired with electrical tape.
I am considering making up my own harnesses using the right color wires except for the ones with tracers, but I would like to wrap them with something that looks like the original wrapping. Is there such a thing?.
I may have to use friction tape.
