Re: Electrical

There are several places to look. All would be related to the power feed into the car. Other than the obvious connections at the battery, fusable links etc, the most common break is usually in the firewall connector. Look at the main power (red) wire at the bulk head connector. It usually is burned or dirty in the connector.

Also, closely check the battery cables where they attach at the frame and Solenoid. look at the connection between the cable itself and the terminal. See my post on the '74 car above.
