rewiring giving me a head ache
 
I bought a 72 Chevy step side two weeks ago. It's been rebuilt with a smaller V6. But it's ok and its running well. But here's the list of electrical problems

-Cab light
-Revers light
-Brake light (currently ghetto zip tied to work)
-Cigarette lighter
-Stereo (n/a currently, looking to buy one soon)
-Air conditioning
-Windshield wipers

Is all this worth fixing from stock? or should I get a new harness/fuss box and rewire the whole truck?

Currently the cab is stripped inside. So I have easy access to everything. I want to get this electrical done before I paint.

ps. I'm used to working on bikes, but cars are a whole new ball game. This truck will be my learning project so take it easy on me :metal:

What to do depends on what your budget allows. A complete quality wiring kit isn't cheap. Also is the original wiring all hacked up? You can fix all those issues, it would just take some time and patience. One of the biggest causes of wiring issues is bad grounds.
