coil fire??

neg wire to dist for sure. like i said . the fusible link wire was fried into, ( batery charger hooked up and something grounded???) maybe two wires melted together under the taoe somewhere? i will run jumper from bett. to plus side of coil today and put on new coil and leave OFF the wiring harness wire.
back some years ago when i was puttin one of these beasts together, i always bought new repo engine wiring harness. ( i had more $$ then than now!!!!) LOL thanks for the help. i realize its pretty simple,
