Default everyday a problem

I swear everyday presents a new issue with this 84'. I read where some guys won't buy a Crossfire,but as far as I can see,its all the other piddley crap thats gets to me,not the motor,it runs great.... Today the rear hatch release in the glove box would not work,no power to the pnk/blk wire;Why who knows...yesterday the cruise would not engage...why?...who knows! I could not afford to pay some one to look for shorts or bad connections,not with the amount of problems this car has. It would be at least $85/hr,times who knows how many hours.The wires were screwed up when I started on the car a year ago,and once I fix something,two other things go haywire...Today I noticed two wires,cut off,just hanging there swinging in the breeze under the dash...Checked Holmes book,I don't even have that color wire,again pnk/blk and a brown....I don't want to jury rig it...so I guess my question is...Rip the whole dash apart and trace every wire to its source,or just sell it for nothing on E-bay.Saw several 84's there for under $3000....makes me ILL....Thanks for listening to me b&%CH...
