1948 f-6 Rewire help/challange
I 'm rewiring my F-6 and purchased a new harness that was recommended by a user here. The harness has me stumped. I've detailed out what I think is everything to help get this truck rewired. I know this is asking a lot and everyone has been very helpful. I wouldn't expect this for free. I can send some money via PayPal for wiring instructions.
The harness is here:

I've pulled all the wires I think will be potentially be used and have a matrix with each numbered. I also have pictures and a wiring diagram with all the parts numbered. I need help with this harness as it has too many circuits, etc.
The harness is grouped by the mfg into three areas; Front Section, Tail Section, and DASH & Steering.

I won't go through the whole harness but here is a start...in the TS section, all wires listed should be straightforward with some clarification. The Left Backup also serves as the Right Backup since both come on at the same time. This is also true for the Left Rear Park and the Right Rear Park. As for the "Brake???", brake lights are actually the turn signals which are energized without the blinking. Any wires that are not used can be taped up and left in the bundle...there may be a time that you need another circuit and it's nice to just pull the wire out of the bundle instead of having to run another.

What Charlie said, plus, if you're going to use a 1 wire alternator instead of the generator, do that swap now. The regulator is internal and you'll eliminate a bunch of stuff to mess with. There's plenty of diagrams on the internet on how to set up a 1 wire alt.
The wiper motor being vacuum, you can wrap the wiper wire into the under dash bundle.
