Q:
I overloaded my parking light switch contacts\wires... Oops.
So I had to rebuild the entire front wire harness. This took 1.5 days and about 70.00$. I removed the harness from the car then I stripped it down. I had to replace all the blinker and parking light wires\ connections. I installed a relay for the parking lights and replaced all the ground wires. I replaced all the main power lines and fuses and installed a 100amp circuit breaker. I then installed all new wire loom plastic and T connections...
Next project is to replace the main power for the dropping resistors\MS computer\LM1 wbo2\ and fuel pump.
Yup I found it in a junkyard and made it look Sweet ;-)

Wow. You do nice work. Nice to see someone take some pride and detail in their work.

Eventualy I will remove the main wire harness and fuse block and replace it all. I'm just doing it one piece at a time ;-)

Sexy! Hey theres a guy on Ebay that rebuilds those harnesses and charges an absolute fortune for them. With as clean as that looks you very well could have a part time job doing that.
A:
My dad taught me how to read wiring diagrams by the time I was 6. He was with the IBEW for like 35 years. I have been on jobs where he was fixing a 10,000 pair trunk split(phone and data lines). Wire harnesses are like candy for me. I could probibly do an entire Datsun harness in mabe 2 days. I thought about making harnesses available but I could see an issue with this. 1-just about every car has a different wiring setup. 2-If by chance a customer screws up and installs "said" harness wrong and bursts into flames I could be liable. I love to work on my car and my car only. My own style. Its like art -wait- this is art!! Art immatating life immatating art....

A:
wow i hope i never have to do that to my 87! it looks like twice as many wires, id be lost! LOL!
A:
awesome work man! it might be candy for you but for me that would be a monumental achievement to make it look that nice and have all the wires wind up the same length and all. i love it. probably better than when it rolled off the line.
