New Wiring Harness

I was wondering if any of you had purchased this or any other harness products from this place before:

http://www.classicparts.com/1966-Mai...tinfo/52-330/#

My fuel gauge just had a melt down (literally) It looks like the damage was contained to the plug and upper part of gauge harness. I then noticed the PO had a jury rigged wire in the fuse block for the sending unit. I disconnected and removed it and cleaned up the burnt plug/wires on my cluster.
I will be replacing the sending unit with a new wire set and I have wanted to put full gauges in my truck so I think to be safe and do it the right way I am going to replace the whole dash harness.
I can't afford to rewire the whole truck and it's my daily driver so I am going to do it one harness at a time as I can pay cash.
Any one used their electrical products?
Thank You!!!

Re: New Wiring Harness

for that price maybe you should try and find one with modern fuses. The plug in type unless you are going for original.

Re: New Wiring Harness

I would be interested in something like that with blade fuses. Anybody know if there is a company out there making one?

Re: New Wiring Harness

Thanks for the input I am going to order the harness. I am going to switch over to full gauges as well. Looks like I'll need a little more wiring for that. I do want to keep it pretty original and have no plans to add many accessories at all.

Re: New Wiring Harness

The aaw kit I put in my son's '67 had all of the connecters for aftermarket gauges included. Very good kit with lots of extra wire and connecters.
