My "new" '74 Duster- or why I need a project like a hole in the head

That's great to hear. I've been considering one of their universal harnesses for my 66 but wanted to hear from someone who's actually used one. I figured if nothing else, it'll be a good starting point for what I'm doing with the car.

Hell, finding quality butt splice connectors even seems difficult these days. I picked up some un-insulated ones yesterday from Napa and the one I used almost broke in half when I crimped it. I'm assuming the terminals/connectors in the AA kit were good quality?

Yeah the terminals in the AA kit are nice. I'm certainly no expert in electrical stuff but they crimped well, fit all the connectors, seem durable, etc. I have definitely seen cheaper terminals. The wire itself is also a good quality, much better than you get just buying a length of primary wire at the local parts store.

The only minor complaint is the use of the GM ignition and turn signal switch connectors and the GM color scheme. By the end of it the color scheme makes sense, it just takes a little getting used to when you first start. But it makes sense, and with more circuits there's a few more colors anyway.
