I need someone to help me with assessing vacuum lines and electrical wires. I think the harness is original and cannot find where certain wire that mice have chewed used to go and need help reconnecting them to get the truck running again. If anyone has the wire diagrams or vacuum line diagrams or can send me picture of their engine bay so I can use them to reference where the wire I still need to reconnect go to. Thank you for reading and I appreciate any help you all provide.

Look on ebay, you might get lucky and find an old service manual for sale?

Welcome. If you are going to try and restore on older pickup, get the service and parts manual. It will be well worth the dollars for the aggravation you save and the quality info. Try for a factory manual, not Chilton or Haynes.

There are a couple of excellent threads on a full restoration with a lot of detailed pictures. Should help.
