Default wiring

My 91 that i have bought has some wiring problems. seem like the seals on the top would leak, not enough to soak the insides but enough to bring the humidity levels waaaay up and now it sees like all the connections are coroded .i also have problems with the blower motor wanting to run all the time unless i un plug it. i replaced the ac/heat control head and that didnt fix it. Its on a salvage title as it had been wrecked by running over a curb the frame extension that holds the front bumper was bent badly have one coming from the junk yard, and the suspension on the right rear has a bottoming out problem thats next to be fixed. it runs great and drives ok that is until i get the rear fixed. and suggestions on the wiring? I have named the car Vampira as it draws blood from me everytime i work on it.

no offense but that car sounds like a bottom less money pit and a car that should have been a parts car. by the time you buy all the parts and time to fix it. you will have spent more then the cars worth and could have bought a better car that needs less work.

good luck
