I must've missed the original post.
I drive a 40 year old car with the original harness to work everyday.
My car has it's share of problems, but very few of them are harness
related. The few that are, are connector failures. I've never had a
wire fail.
So IMO, if reliability is the goal, you're better off spending your time
and money elsewhere (like new switches, new fuel tank, etc.). Besides,
if you carry a few clip leads in the trunk, it's trivial to hotwire a
TR3 enough to drive whereever you're going.
