It is hard to tell if the wires were installed and then tied into a harness or other way around.
My Viking II kit came with a finished laced cable. It would have been unusual for a manufactured or kit Viking II to be assembled without a pre-laced cable, as that was universal practice when Real Radio equipment was made.
To assemble the "wiring harness" a cable board was made, typically on a piece of 3/4" plywood, with nails or special parts as trunk guides and springs to hold wires at breakouts. The cable board was usually constructed using a dis-assembled hand-wired cable removed from the prototype to locate guides for production cables. A wire cutting chart was prepared for pre-cutting and striping numbered wires, and each breakout from the cable was marked (or illustrated) on the board with corresponding wire numbers and color code. The cable was laced with waxed linen "lacing cord" by hand after all the wires were in place. Some production cable boards were works of art, multilevel in some cases, made on varnished maple plywood by skilled technicians (usually hams) who took great pride in the quality of their work.
