'75 Duster rewiring - opinions on direction?
Not a surprise but this project has turned into a can of worms, not just electrically. The car had the key ignition switch bypassed, he used a push button and a kill switch because the key lock was stripped. I took the steering wheel off and removed the turn signal switch and ignition switch out, ordered new ones. Also bought a new key lock. So I'm going to rebuild it all and go back to original stock key switch to start the car.
While it's all apart I'm replacing all the gauges since they weren't functional and went with Speedhut gauges including GPS speedometer. Putting in a new ratchet shifter so I won't miss a gear when I run it at the dragstrip (manual shift reverse valve body). While it's all apart I'll soundproof the floor and install new carpet. I went with the EZ Wiring harness, it's inexpensive. I am impressed with the quality of the kit and the labeling of the wires :)
