    We just bought this van today, looking for some helpful information on where to get some parts....as you can see by the photo's that the rear door and lights have been shaved and the side door is in the process of being gullwinged. Gonna try to get it running in the next few days but the engine harness is fryed and we are looking on where to get a replacement harness....any helpful info or coments would be apprecaited..

    I really don't think you want 40+ years old wire in there anyway.

    Yeah, friend of ours had it, and sold it to us because he found a better van in California he wanted to buy... Very Happy

    If you were maybe thinking of making some changes ,like 1 wire alt and HEI ignition and real guages ,alot of those wires become dead wieght anyway past the big connector,also the main dash feed conection in that mess has most likely been over heated and nearly burned out anyway. at least thats what I have run into on a couple vans.
