Topic: Electrical Wiring on 82

[82rustbeast]

I bought this truck two weeks ago,it's an 82. I bought a battery, hooked up the wire to the coil to get it to start. It idles roughly but i'm working on it. But here's the REAL question.
It's a wiring nightmare. The The A.C., heater, stereo, and voltimeter and oil pressure guages r gone. I have misc wires everywhere. Seems like every light has a short. When I hook up the battery. The back up lights automatically turn on, so i pulled the fuse. then when i start it, the 4WD light brightens when i accelerate and flickers when i let off the gas. So how hard would it be to rewire pretty much everything. It's federal emissions 22R 4sp. Or is there someone who offers new wiring harneses for 1st gen toys. if not how about good used ones? Please help me with anything you can. I'll get up pics tomorrow morning.

The power wires for the gauges should be plenty. If not you could always slice a gauge wire and use on 2 gauges.
