I second the motion for Ken to do a car for the GNRS! How about this one? It certainly has the design details...

Good grief! What a can of worms! Headlights, taillights, alternator, starter, and conventional gauges are no problem, but that system is a real puzzle. Ken, I commend you for your perseverence and your intelligence. I would never even attempt to try wiring all that modern electronic stuff...

I third that motion, matter moved foward by popular consent. It's even in Pomona CA Ken. I'll even volunteer to wash and wax it and deliver it clean and sparkling!
Seriously Ken, I think you should go for it!

Only 1200 ties, Ken?? Your wiring is looking good!! Since I have been doing mine now with lot of other chassis and body projects for over two months and am still at about 80% can understand how those ties "disappear". With a heluva lot fewer wires since the most exotic piece I have is a full MSD/carb setup, I've probably used well over 500 - and probably still have another 250 or more to go and am out of the small blacks. I do use some good electrical tape, (Scotch #33) inside my few lengths of convoluted tubing , but am well aware that it will eventually get gummy.

Henry Rifle, I know what you mean. I found some spiral plastic tube that is probably better.
