Others will disagree, but I think that replacement of the FI wiring 
harness is usually a waste of money. OTOH, I've had to do it once. 
Good repairs are almost always sufficient, but this means good solder 
joints and heat shrink tubing.  Don't waste your time with crimp 
splices or electrical tape.

I probably have all the parts you might need. You need a B brain for 
your '69. I have the sliding covers, and the brains themselves are 
almost always good.
