As some of you know, I recently bought a '72 MGB from Tom Bedenbaugh...bought it to rebuild for resale....solid body, engine is clean enough to eat off, new tires, dash is very nice with new topper...body is solid & primered (floors already repaired - looks professional) & body almost ready for paint...was originally Teal Blue...wire wheels
...here's the problem: somebody has cut every butt connector out of the wiring harness!
...so, as of now, I've replaced the main wiring harness with one out of a '72 parts car (just need to pull dash to get remaineer of old harness out of car & plug up new harness), rewired headlights, park lights, front side marker lights....replaced fan motor, brake light switch, brake pressure failure switch, & both horns as they also had connectors cut off....
...I've a '73 bodyshell that's going to crusher tomorrow so I pulled the rear harness from it to use on the '72....UH-OH!...'73 has green/white wire to rear lights where '72 has blue....'73 also has red/brown wire to seatbelt warning light that '72 doesn't...now, I've gotta go pull the rear harness from my parts car & replace so wires match (don't wanna be called a DPO by next owner!)...just a minor setback but thought others might want to know: there was a change in wiring harnesses in the '71-'72 time frame & another for the '73 cars...I could plug the green/white wire into the blue & it'd work fine & could just leave the red/brown hanging but that's not the way I do things....
...so, here's your chance to help build the car...I'm gonna go back with an Autumn Leaf interior....should it go back:
(A) Teal Blue (I don't like that color)
(B) 1974 Mirage
(C) '70-'73 Bronze Yellow
(D) 1973 Black Tulip
(E) '72-'73 Mallard Green
(F) '70-'77 Glacier White
