A good choice Kevin, but just make sure that you get
ALL of the wiring harnesses you need to do the complete car, especially regarding the dash harness, as there are several sub wiring harnesses that plug into the main harness and those smaller sub harnesses are almost never included with the main harness. You can also order a custom engine harness that will allow you to run an aftermarket electronic ignition set-up, so there are several things to figure out before you place the order.

I did a extensive re-wire on my 67 this past winter. I made my own harness. Being my car is not a 100 point show car!
I wanted the safety and security of modern voltage regulator, altenator, and ignition.
Without a schematic it's hard to figure out what's what!
I found working on one circuit at a time. Test. And move to the next.
Patents is key!
