Car is on the rotiserrie. The only thing I left on the car was the wiring harness and the fuse panel. The rear wires were all bundled up nicely in a bag in the engine compartment. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif)
I was welding up a patch in the fire wall from the drivers compartment side, and I guess some sparks flew into the engine compartment and started the bag on fire. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/new_shocked.gif) By the time I noticed it was on fire and put it out I had some big clumps of plastic and the fused together wire was toast!! Anyone got a good used wiring harness....cheap??? |

If you have a 75-76 they interchange. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) i put a '74 harness in my '70 car and it was a lot of work to get it all right. even needed some grinding and welding ... save yourself a lot of headache and get a complete harness from the same year.
