ok once again a little lost..lol

[SS Shaun]

ok guys and gals i have done a lot to the chevelle and now i am to the point where i dont know what to get next.
here is what i was told from another member on here

My typical route for a car that drives is:

engine, trans, rear.
Brakes
Suspension
Body work and paint
Interior

Now for a car that is a basket case:

Bodywork. All metal work and the bones of the car have to be right.
Suspension
Brakes
Engine, trans, rear.
Interior.

So i have the rear done
brakes all new
suspension all new minus front shock but i have them in the garage.
body is in good shop ugly but in good shape
i have all of my interior that i can use for now and over time i will replace what i need to replace. but now i am thinking about wiring? I rebuilt my engine harness to run and HEI dizzy but should i leave it or get it new? Should i replace all of my wiring harness or see if its any good? i have everything i think i need for my motor to see it will run but i am just not sure what to tackle next.
(btw my wheels and tires will be here on friday or saturday and so will my driveshaft..lol)

Shaun. I know you have been doing a lot on your car.
Get all your running gear finished first, car can't be driveable unless you do that.
If body work is going to be done before you plan t drive it do it next, or if you want to be able to drive it then work on your wiring so you can start it up.

Replacing the wiring depends on your budget and what you plan to do to the car. I replaced all my wiring under the hood since it was in bad shape from all the heat. I did not replace the dash harness, but thinking about doing that since I have had so much trouble trying to get all my gauges working correctly.

Interior is the last thing I did to my car. I worried about getting all the mechanically and paint done first.

You've gone through the engine harness, there's not much to it. Don't know about your forward light harness. I reworked both of mine when I installed a new gauge dash, did not replace. As Ray said the interior harness should be in better shape since it's not exposed to the heat and elements. If it looks to be in good shape I would move on to the engine.

If there is an issue with either the engine harness or forward light harness they're easy enough to replace with the engine installed. Of course if you have the money and want new, now would be the time.
