To anyone contemplating completely rewiring a vehicle....don't.

This project is not dead but it definitely has hit a speed bump, the wiring just seems to consume hours and hours of work without showing significant progress. Also I don't have a ton of time to work on it as I have other things going on constantly. [\complaining]

I am now over 50% done with it, but I am going to have to turn this into a phase 1 then phase 2 sort of job as I need to get the vehicle driving down the road to prevent the project from completely stalling out. So phase 1 will finish everything needed to make it street legal (e.g. lights, etcetera) and phase 2 will add the nice to have's (e.g. trailer wiring). Also phase 1 will just bolt the interior back in, and phase 2 will involve repainting the trim/seat frames/etcetera.

I hope to actually invest some time in it over this weekend, so hopefully with some luck I can get phase 1 buttoned up.
