Yeah, but - sometimes it ain't all about the price!
None of us built a car and based our decisions all about the pricing! I know some of my decisions were just purely because I wanted it! Don't need any other reason.

Yea, that's true.. I'm actually thinking of just doing it for the experience. I've made things like fog light harnesses and aux harnesses before but nothing big... I have yet to buy anything from a street rod vendor. Everything on my hotrod was either built by me or sourced from the junkyard. Only 2 catalog items to date were the Jegster ladder bars and some Ebay sourced coil overs because I'm not going to take chances with self designed suspension components.. Any extra supplies can get used on the boat as that wiring was never right from the factory. I pulled the top cap and found 2 conductor lamp cord running to the navigation light in the bow, and I'm pretty sure it's factory. Boat was built in 1961 by a failing company ( Custom Craft ) so quality was a bit shady.
The hotrod will also tow the boat ( 1,090 lbs dry on trailer ), so I need to intergrate a HD flasher and trailer wiring connector into the harness anyway.Last edited by Matt167; 05-24-2013 at 09:03 PM.
