I need to address that same issue as well. 40+ years has really started eating away that old wiring.
ya i have seen the painless kits, if i were to buy a kit i would go with EZ-wire, i have used their kits a couple times on jeeps and they are usually quite a bit cheaper than painless. on this one though i would end up not using a lot of the kit pieces so i am just going to wire it myself, i plan on upgrading the "big 3" and wiring in a ford starter relay, going with a newer alternator.
