I have looked all over and for some reason I can't get a straight answer I need to know if a 1967 F100 Painless Wiring harness number (10118) would just fall into place for my 65 F100 I am only 20 and this was my first car and the wires are the worst wires I have ever seen please HELP!!!

 

Not familiar with the 67 wiring circuitry; having said that, if you look at "Painless" list of wiring kits descriptions it indicates that particular kit: 10118 does not fit the 65 application. It appears they do offer a 12 circuit kit #30020; so, it depending upon how many circuits one want to add the 65 painless harness item # will vary. Not sure which circuits are similar/same between the 65 and 67, and I would not pay that amount of money for a kit that I would have to modify. Posting a link to Summit Performance not necessarily for the purpose of buying but one can compare the various kits with their application. Just happened upon this item but make sure to do the research.

Have not found a reproduction harness for the dash; however, the dash harness on my 65 was not too seriously butchered, or damaged so I removed it, took plastic ties to keep the wiring trunks together and then added a couple of circuits, and repaired others. For info purposes, there's what is referred to a 'harness tape', it usually comes in black and it does not have an adhesive backing, strongly suggest using in repairing or replacing wiring.

On my 65 I went with reproduction harnesses, they have the same connectors, and wiring color codes so it was just a matter of removing the old and plug in the replacement, I just purchased the main harnesses; taillight, headlight, alternator, majority of the other wiring consist of a single wire that you can purchase at any auto part store. I did add a couple of circuits but if one wants to add a few additional circuits in the future then kits probly better way to go. Other member's have given favorable reviews on their experience with the harness kit, perhaps one will chime in with info??

 

American autowire has a 65 wiring harness is anyone familiar with that I was looking for something that is fairly simple so I wouldn't have too much of a jumbled mess cause mine now has ALOT of spots it could come apart

 

I could really use some help my harness is getting worse and I would like to use as close to a direct plug in as possible does anyone know of a good one thanks

 

If the dash harness is in extremely poor condition and beyond repair then the wiring kit may be the better route to go.

As mentioned, replaced the harnesses on the 65 thru Mr. Mustang. This was many yrs. ago so they may no longer be in business, or the link to the price list is probly out dated. Setting aside the time I spent making repairs to the dash harness, to unplug the old harnesses and plugging in the replacements took me about 20 min's. If decide to go this route, suggest purchasing a small tube of dielectric grease and apply a dab in the connectors, as well as, clean the ground surfaces and add a dab. Again, if decide to go with the reproduction I would only buy the major harnesses, the others primarily consist to a single wire.

Posting link to Mr. Mustang, not sure they are still in business, however, many of the Ford part supplier's now carry them.

 

You simply need to learn a little about DC current, grounds, fuses, circuits and how to use a cheap multimeter. This stuff is not rocket science but can be intimidating for the beginner. It may be simpler for you to repair the circuits that are giving you concern rather than starting over with a new harness. I use universal harnesses available on ebay for less than a hundred bucks. I'd go that route if you must start over with a complete rewire. Or...just post questions about the circuits that are giving you problems. JMHO.

 

I had post something on this a month back. I ended up going with this kit for my 66.

Or it can be ordered direct from the builder of the kit at this site.

I do know my buddy that is helping me rewire mine used "Painless" kit for his Jeep Cj and had nothing but issues with it. I know someone on here suggested a kit by EZ-wire.

 

I do know they also make a wiring kit for a 1965 here..
