    Well I have Moneypenny’s dash and instruments cluster all wired. Just have to finish testing and tying the wires with wax string. If all goes well, tomorrow I’ll install the dash. I’ll take plenty of photos…chassis grounds and behind the dash wiring.

    A wax string harness! That tells me that you are familiar with that traditional method of finishing electronic wiring. Good for you. It is labor intensive but looks sooo much better than plastic ties or spiral wrap. A well done strung harness is a craftsman’s touch for electrical work, comparable to an elegantly formed EMT array.   🙂

    Thanks Kall. I’ve been tying  wiring with wax string for 40 some years. Labor intensive but for some unknown reason I actally enjoy it! Perhaps its therapeutic?
