I am bringing my 1969 RR back from the neglection space in the garage. It has been sitting since December of 1994. I have stripped the car getting it ready for some body work and returning the paint to the original B3 blue. Since the car is stripped I was going to replace the wiring. Can anyone give a suggestion on a wire vendor?

M&H is what I have on mine. Everything seems to look ok and I would buy again. Customer service is also good.
I tested and matched all the connections old versus new per the wiring diagram. All good. When testing, I put 12V to the rear light harness and had a short in the left parking light. I found one stray wire strand had strayed from inside the socket. Replaced that and now all works fine. Best to test everything you can before the first crank up. With a complete resto there will be issues. Just a matter of what and how many.

I bought a new harness from Kwik wire, 14 circuit, all well marked. Got rid of the firewall connector, as previous owners had it pretty hacked up.
If it was salvagable I would have used it, but to take a chance on a possible wire harness fire, was not worth the trouble. I had some questions and the owners were able to answer right away. Small family operation based in New England.

Restoring a classic car like your 1969 RR sounds like an exciting project! When it comes to rewiring, it's essential to choose high-quality wiring components to ensure reliability and safety for your vehicle.
