Revived another one

Brought back to life another K30 M1028 ex fire service truck. I don't understand why so many people are afraid of the CUCV electrical system, once you've played with a couple dozen of them or two its quite simple!
(Also helps to have an identical parts truck)

Civilian Utility Cargo Vehicle. I'm curious, what is different about the CUCV wiring? Is it all idiot lights or something?

I stand corrected. Doesn't seem like the extra wiring is that bad though.
