Default Engine Harness rebuild

I have a damaged engine harness for my 68 Camaro. I know there are replacement wiring harness's that are pretty nice, however they are not perfect. I was told once that one of the harness places will rebuild or repair your harness and this way you have all the right connectors, ends, colors, etc. All the other wiring on the car is original and it sort of bugs me having the repro piece. Anybody know anything? Thanks

I got my harnesses from M&H (through Rick's First Generation) I compared them to what was left of my original harnesses, and did not notice any differences. I think they are great, albiet expensive!

I got mine from the junk yard [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
My car's wires were all original except one so I found the one missing at the junk yard that was exactly like original and spliced it in back under where the factory tape is.

Unreal, I do have a repro harness, and while it is very nice, all the other stuff on the car is original and I would like to save the original harness if I can. The car is very close to a survivor (1 repaint, most everything else came with the car when new, including carpet, weatherstrips, etc)

JoeC, Good tip on splicing another piece in from an other original harness. I was certain I had another harness and spent most of the afternoon looking for it. Didn't find it, but I straightened up a lot of stuff and even threw several boxes of stuff away. And, I found some good stuff that I forgot I had.
