Maybe he got eaten up by the harness when he tried to install it? :lol:

Would like to hear more about this, particularly on the harness ends/connectors.

I'm interested in whether any aftermarket wiring harnesses have O.E. style connectors and pigtails. When I get around to rewiring my truck I'd like it to be as easy as possible. As it stands now, its either replace every wire one by one or go with a universal harness and then make it work with what I've got and want. But that still leaves all of the ends of the wires with connections that are over 40 years old.

I believe he sold this truck for scrap, (shortly after pulling his hair out trying to finish the wiring on it). If you run a search his username posts you'll find the demise of it. :(

i dont think any of the wiring companies sell the wiring with any of the ford plugs. you have to cut off your wiring and splice in your old plugs. that is what i have heard.
