Been down that road just once. I think that's one of the toughest jobs in restoration; R and R wiring. The other times I've done it, I just started from scratch rather than pull the original back in. But a 911 it's too complicated for that.

For me anyway.

Sure can:)

I'd recomend replacing the harness since you've got it completely out.. Absolute values in Ohms especially if measured with inexpensive meters is not a full indication of integrity. Copper gets work hardened by current over time. Circuits could look great laying on the floor but, then when re-installed......poof.

Skimping here can lead to severe headaches down the road when being put back together.

Zeke 05-15-2013 02:05 PM

That seems overkill. However, there are some specialists that can go over the wiring and determine any deficiencies. With the harness out, this might be a good preemptive step.

I forget, will this be a driver or original concours type? If a driver, might be a good time to upgrade to a modern blade style fuse block as built and sold by Pelican's own Fred Cook.
