fuse box

I have a 66, and is there a way to put a bigger fuse box using the existing wiring from a later model truck (like a '79). I want to put in things like air conditioning, electric radiator fans... etc.

Thanks for any help.

Yes, it can be done. You would need to be handy with wiring, and making connections. If not, you can add a second fuse block along side of what is there now, with a new lead wire from the battery. I think I have a couple of fuse blocks from donor trucks at the shop.

Don't forget a bigger alternator, etc. to handle all the extras!
