Does anyone if there's any literature for wiring instructions for these old Pontiacs? I found a hell of a deal on a parts '64 Bonneville convertible that has a freshly restored frame and rear end.  It also has really good metal but it's completely torn apart, and I am not the one who did the tear down so....... I have literally a trailer load of parts and not sure how to reassemble 90% of it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am trying to decide if it's gonna be worth building the parts car or not.  I will submit pictures as soon as I can. 

I would invest in the correct GM/Pontiac shop manual. If an assembly manual is available, I'd purchase that one too. You can get paper and electronic versions of the GM shop manual for your car from Detroit Iron. You might also find used ones online thru eBay, craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, or at local swap meets.

You should also be able to find a wiring schematic for a Bonneville thru Google, or a similar full size GM car online.

We also discussed wiring here in this forum before. Here is the link to that thread.

Here's a color schematic, not sure how much good it will do. It is for a 63 Bonniville, Catalina, and Grand Prix. Let me know if you need a close up of anything.
