Hi Justin – Your wiring situation is a fire waiting to happen. The car should not be driven until the harness is fully replaced. Ron From: chrysler-300-club-international@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx On Behalf Of Justin I All, Thank you for the advice and recommendations! I am a bit hesitant to start this job since I do not plan to pull the dash; perhaps spot repairing is the best course of action at the moment (?). However, the visible wires are in very poor condition. They appear to be rubber coated and the insulation crumbles easily... the cotton covers basically turn to dust when handled. Below is a picture of the wiring block on the core support. Not much color left for ID either. This B is not optioned up (no pwr seats, no pwr windows, no AC), which should make it a bit easier. But if I do order a harness, I'll try to get every last wire on the car. -Justin
From: John Lazenby <french_fryguy@xxxxxxxxx> John, The name you were looking for who did the 300C looms is club member Greg Lettatt who lives in Canada. He did one for me used in our 300C. The quality was and is great, but I think Greg retired from that project many years ago.

Can't remember the name as it was around 20 years ago. Man, is time ever flying by. I used the Rhode Island outfit in the 90's when I did my 55 C-300, and it worked fine. Both cars were being completely taken apart, so it was easy to do the dash wiring with the dashes out of the cars. I don't really want to even think about having to do the G convertible underdash wiring harness, or the harness for my Hurst, especially if trying to do them with the dash still in the car and an old man's eyesight and dexterity.
