If it's in good shape, a new harness could save a lot of headaches now and in the future. Should come with blade-style fuses as well, and be easily available (I would think). Also a great way to undo any butchery that has been done in the last 50 years.Welded points? Annoying. Exploding the coil because it overheats running current through it for an extended time?. Ye I use ACC unless I have the engine running 'cause I know points ignition systems really do not like being 'live' without firing. Do so a lot; when I'm grilling I drop the tailgate and use that as a bench while running the radio.
Happily, no major electrical issues to sort. Blower motor doesnt want to come to life, horn is dead, reverse lights inop, but everything else is working perfectly.
Otherwise, I'd start by checking and freshening all the grounds first. Bad ground can cause weird issues (especially with lighting).
