quick question

[tacoma man.]

hey guys i went to a impound action over the weekend
i stayed throughout the whole thing and when everything
cleared there sat a 1980 turbo trans am black with
gold pin striping. it was in the back of the lot.
i asked the owner if they would let her go.
he said a thousand dallars and she is yours. so i
checked her out. the body, to my surprise is in
great shape no rust holes but there is surface rust in '
some places. this car was actually broke into 10
years ago, the wiring harness has been cut right
before they go into the fire wall plug under the dash.
so i wrote the man a check for the car. and the man
even hauled it to my house for $150. but anyway,
my dad says if i wire them wires back up the car will
probally burn to the ground. but if i put all the colors
back together and use cramp connectors will it still
be screwed up? what should i do?

If you connect the wires back up properly I see no reason why you could have any trouble. Its not like you would have to replace them all or something just because they've been cut.

or get a new harness from GM or, painless makes a harness i'm pretty sure

i think your dad was just expresing his lack of faith in your wiring abilities

but yeah, if you proporly crimp and seal all the wires, correct color for correct color, you should be fine.
