This is a massive job for a weekend home mechanic. Two CA Panteras that I 
know of started the job; one '74 was never finished & sold 6 yrs later as 
non-running. Both owners had gotten disgusted with intermittent opens, shorts 
etc from the stock non-plated Lucas connectors & stock fuses. Good idea, but 
lots of work. If you attempt this, there will be 'spare parts': you'll find 
the extra 10 ft of wire in the front, unconnected wires in the engine bay 
and other little things to add to your car's personal wiring schematic. Try to 
stay motivated & good luck- J Deryke
