Default Wiring question, and opinions

Taking into consideration that I am starting from scratch with just the frame and have completely scrapped all previous wiring.

What's the best way to wire this thing? Buy a wiring harness for my model year, even though most of the parts will be much newer than the model year? Buy some spools of wire and wire it from scratch?

Keep in mind that I probably couldn't follow a wiring schematic to save my life. The wiring of this thing is my biggest fear factor. so give me your opinions.

Thanks

If you don't know how to do wiring go for the factory harness. even if you are good at wiring, the factory ones will usually work better.

I was thinking that. It'd be easier to work with a new harness, and then add some functionality where I needed it.

Thanks

I agree. I am wiring stupid and I would not have wanted to start from nothing. I would get the factory harness and go from there. What other electrical goodies are you going to add to the cart? Are you doing a reducer or a 12v battery?

If it hurts to look at a schematic, then go stock harness. I'm with Scottyb though I like doing it the way I want it to run. Scratch built!
