I found a bit of a rats nest of old and new wiring on the 1953 truck and in a fit of AOCD (Automotive OCD), I began labeling each wire as I pulled it back into the cab and decided at that time to get a whole new wiring harness. After a bit of research I purchased Classic Update Kit - 1947-55 Chevy Truck from American AutoWire. See photo below -
Now the project planning stage begins. For those of you that have tackled this project, where did you mount the fuse block? Any imaginative locations or mounting methods? I want to clean up the firewall in the engine compartment a bit, so I want to limit and relocate where the harness enters under the hood. I'm thinking of two entry points low on each side for the wiring needed on that side of the truck (starter as a example versus alternator)
