The basic wire strand does not deteriorate per se. The insulation can be torn from age, bad routing and failing to secure/protect. I see a LOT of these cars with dodgy wiring modifications.
A good point about lack of fuses on some circuits. Even with the key off there are several, still hot circuits at rear fuse panel (yes, the plastic cover that is missing from a lot of 911s has a purpose) etc. Grab a test light and poke around to find them.

I do not disbelieve in anything. I start from the premise that everything is true until proved false. Everything is possible.
