Sacramento Vintage Ford has complete wiring harnesses with fabric over PVC, but not cheap.

When rewiring a vehicle (depending on your knowledge of electrical and experience ) looking at a complete wiring kit can appear quite daunting but go slow one section,one circuit and one wire at a time and it's not to bad a job . I really enjoy wiring but that's just me .

Well, I'm an architect not an electrical engineer.

Dennis - my wife is from Coatesville and I grew up in Hockessin. We're in Lewisberry now, about halfway between York and Harrisburg.

And I'm a business major and got it done. This isn't design engineering just color matching and ruler work. Kind of like GerAnimals for those of a certain age.

Ok, I bought my wiring harness and at the far left it has circuit 13B-B1 which it says goes to "Pillar Lt Ckt". Is this the dome light?

I would say yes. The lines for the fuel sender and the dome light run up the pillar and over the side window to the back of the cab.

My frame and subframes are coming back from the painters tomorrow. If you get bored you could always head down here for a day or 5 and help me with mine when the time comes cause the wiring scares the crap out of me. And did you ever get that pattern for your front window. I must apologize for I completely missed your pm way back. If you do need it I can sure trace out mine and send it up to you. Sorry for the hijack. I went with the Rebel wiring kit. Its marked well for each circuit but I went with 12 volt for mine.

Thank you Fortyniner. Since I'm moving the gas tank to the rear I guess I'll have to do some rerouting.
