    To resto-mod or Not, that is the ?

    I think if you get high quality parts, and rebuild to stock it shouldn't hurt the value. At least it wouldn't to me if i was looking for a cruiser.

    Painless? Wiring Turn/brake/Horn

    From what i remember, the power comes from the light switch to the brakelight switch, which then sends power to the turn signal switch which in turn distributes power to the lights in the back. http://midlife66.com/wiring/66exter1.jpg As for the horn, do you think it's a wiring issue? cause...
