I'm nearing the end of an eleven year ground up rebuild of my '59 MGA. I am  
ready to install the main wiring harness and/or the dash. I did not  
disassemble this car but acquired it already in boxes. I have further  
complicated the 
process by fabricating a wooden burled  walnut dash, which I realize will 
require some additional ground  wiring. I have been to Barney Gaylord's web 
site 
and read his article on  "Wiring Harness Replacement". My questions are as 
follows:
 
1.  Considering my rebuild, is the main wiring harness  installed in the car 
first?
2.  When installing the dash, are all of the gauges, switches and  cables 
mounted to the dash prior to installation to the car?
3.  And after item 2., is the main wire harness connected/wired  to the dash?
4. Does anyone recommend using dielectric grease at "most" electrical  
connections and/or the use of Loctite on applicable terminals to improve wiring 
 
integrity?
 
Thanks
 
Steve Weber
