I’d do start/ignition/accessories next. Now that will branch off to a number of things, but you can isolate them. Or move on to taillights/brakes/turn signals. No matter what you choose, keep the small fuse and jumper on the main battery feed at the battery. Just in case theres a direct fault to ground. You don’t want to have to buy replacement smoke, I don’t know if they make it for Fords.

I replaced the original wiring with a kit that has a fuse panel so I am relatively safe there as far as smoke goes. Since I have head lights/parking and tail lights powered up correctly I was going to work turn signals and brake today, then oil/gen and heater next. Then move to the ign and charging and horns. Sound reasonable? Oh I still have to deal with the fuel tank as well.

I would like to rewire my streetrod, but I hate to start on another major project.
