UPS man stopped by......
Now if I can figure out where to start.
 j/k, I've already got a great start and Richard Morgan helped me out tonight. I thought I was a perfectionist but he's really a perfectionist and has some great ideas too. I'll post some pics of the installed wiring soon.

Can't wait to see. Ugly wiring can sure make a nice ride look like crap. When I bought mine everything was wire loomed even the heater hoses.

Hey Randy, Please post detailed pics and info. I plan on getting a painless kit for my truck and would really like to see what you do and any problems you run into.
Did you start by just "RIPPIN" all the old stuff out? Thanks 70short/step

My wifes truck was a total resto so we had already stripped the cab clean when we started. I helped a little when popeye72 installed his painless kit and the only thing to be aware of that I can remember is that the hole in the firewall where all the wires come through needs to be cut bigger. I had a Painless kit that I installed in my old Model A and never had a single problem with it.
......I'm not a big fan of wire looms either. |

Who did you order your painless kit from? Is it the kit specific for 67-72 chevy pickups or just the universal one? The best price I found for the 67-72 kit was $375.. I dont know what they usually run for... I'll be looking for more updates on your project... Thanks!

I ordered from the place that Bowtie posted the link to, $325 shipped to my front door. It's the cheapest that you'll find and it's specifically designed for our trucks.
Here's the shop: http://www.carshopinc.com/index.php...977fc29c50d04d2

Whats in the two bags? Can you show detail a pic of what this stuff is? It looks like I might need some extra pieces. The only thing I got in a bag was the headlight connectors and resistor.
E-bay, go figure!

The turn signal relays are in there too. Yours may already be on the fuse block.
