That just depends on how the car was maintained and so many variables to that. Hard to say unless it can be inspected. Some cars have fairly nice wiring others are totally shot or barely holding it together.
The OP may be only in a scenario where now that it was painted he needs to scrape down to bare metal all the ground points. OR maybe the wiring is indeed shot. OP can you give a little more context? Was the car pulled apart for the paint job or was this an exterior only kind of quickee job? Was the wiring all disconnected? Hard to assess without more detail.... This guy seems at the end of his rope (literally!!!). |
