hi to all,this is my first post(first Vette for that matter), I picked up a 72 and mostly all I'm going to do is fix some of the engineered wiring. I know there's already several wiring threads, but would like to know which wiring manual is going to show the circuit from one end to the other including relays,etc... the turn signals and brake lights don't work even though the head lights and running lights do, any way looking forward to being on the forum, I'm down in Crestview, Florida so if anyone is nearby give me a holler,,,,,,,,,,,,

I have a wiring diagram from www.lectriclimited.com
It shows every wire, harness, switch, fuse, relay and circuit breaker in the car. There is an individual selling them for the earlier year C3s, but his are in color if that matters to you. I'm not sure of that purchase info, but I'm sure someone will be along shortly that can provide that for you.

Good luck on your wiring. I'm finished with my interior and still have to finish cleaning up in the engine compartment.

Money can't buy happiness. It can buy you a jet ski. You ever see an unhappy person on a Jet Ski...

Yep, after he stuffed it into the dock.

I agree, I have Don's color coded diagram and it is hands down the BEST on the market. I also have the other and they're total crap in comparision. I used Don'd on my 72 and every wire was 100% correct.
