Cold checks (continuity) are done, power checks are done, Temp Gage circuit repaired (after market/under dash temp gage removed), repaired Charging circuit wiring, replaced/repaired faulty splices/connections, removed a ton of extraneous wiring PO had installed.
Today I'll crank it up, verify Starting circuits, Charging system functions. If all goes well I'll start tying up & wrapping wire bundles and reassemble dash components.
It won't look 'factory' but I'm more concerned with integrity of the wiring.

UPDATE, 5PM Friday:
Cranked, ran, verifying the Start/Run circuits. Temp Gage operated OK, Ammeter was dead, but Alternator was at 14V @ idle RPM. I'll have to go back and clean all the connections in that 2 wire circuit. (Not one of Ford's better designs.)
And I stand corrected: It was the PPO that hacked the wiring in this car (NOT Arlie) :smile: In fact, he had warned me about the wiring/electrical.
To be continued...
