I bought a1958 beetle project from a guy that gave up or ran out of money take your pick! The car is partially complete but needs more.
It's has been modified with a 2017cc engine, Webber carbs, stainless header and a Freeway flyer transmission, 4 Wheel disc brakes. Along with the car cam lots of parts including a new 1958 replacement wire harness and 3 fuse fuse box.
Needless to say it will be a 12 volt system. It has had the alternator installed.
So the question is, Is there a wire harness to use the car should have for all the modern stuff it will have like electric fuel pump, radio, electronic ignition system, lighting, etc.
I'd like to find a harness similar to what the "Painless Wiring" system has. Their harnesses are fool proof. I don't think they have one for a beetle. I'd be interested to know what others have used for this update.
Thanks in advance |
