Vette(s): 78 silver anniversary L82 black int
Hello everyone,
Im restoring a 78 from bumper to bumper. So far I have raised the body, sanded, primed and repainted the entire frame (I hate rust). I have completely rebuilt front and rear suspension including trailing arms. Also I have rebuilt the power steering cylinder and attempted the power steering valve but mine was to far gone and had to be replaced. I have traced and repaired the entire vaccuum system ( heat/ac, headlights, cruise control). I am now moving on to electrical and other systems, and  engine components are in machine shop If I can be of any help with anything mentioned above please ask. I feel like I know these systems intimately. 
I saw a thread on here about wiring diagrams and would love to get my hands on anything available, specifically cruise control and alarm systems. Also have wires I cant identify. where's the best place to start?

Hi Don, Welcome to the site. You sound like quite a mechanic. I don't know if you have met a GURU of C3VR. His name is Joel. His name here is Adams' Apple. He can send you the wiring digrams that you need for your "78". check out this link to his thread: http://www.VetteRegistry.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=65148&KW=diagrams corvette440hp2008-08-31 09:45:41
