wiring references needed!

well my harness is getting crispy and my dash harness is a disaster as I took it apart to remove excess wiring. Needless to say I am in territory outside my skill level. I am looking for a wiring EXPERT! Hopefully someone who can rewire entire car, removing un-needed wiring )want to remove AC, airbags, stereo, possibly smog equipment and their related wiring connections. I would also like it to all look good as in a tuck. Anyone out there know someone? LMK. In north bay but will travel.

another call for wiring help?

I'm surprised but still no references? Closest thing I found was Jordon Innovations in San Diego. Anyone out there have any experience with them? Also, for those with restoration experience in what order would you restore each "area" of your car? I.E. body and paint; wiring; interior, chassis, interior, drivetrain....any advice welcome.

It's a huge undertaking, it took me a few months to get mine done. But that's starting with no knowledge of even how to solder properly. You can try asking Digitalsolo in the norotors forums, he does excellent work. Jordan innovations is a good place as well. You really have to keep in mind that what you are asking for will take several months to complete, maybe even a year.

I took this on when I was rebuilding my engine and repainting the engine bay. Although it may seem like an impossible task, just take it one wire at a time... only remove the wires you don't need at spliced locations or you could unintentionally disable functions you did not intend to.

Oh, and make sure to test out your simplified harness BEFORE you loom and tape it all up.
This advice may sound too simple but thats because it really is not all that difficult. I am in no way a wiring expert and managed to not screw anything up haha.

For a new harness from scratch, hit up EB Turbo. I took care of my front and dash harness simplification and had him make me a new engine harness which I am thoroughly pleased with.

Good luck
