Default 60 parisienne confusion

Well I took the plung on this huge project, for me anyway. A 60 pontiac Parisienne convertable in at least a thousand pieces. I understand that these cars have chevy driveline and floor and many of the same interior parts I think. My question or questions are is the dash wire harness chevy or pontiac? And not sure of the rear body harness as well . Can anyone chime in and list whats chevy and whats pontiac on this car. Any help wouldd be appreciated. This is gonna be a huge and long challange for me and will be asking for advice from all the knowledgable people on this site . Ill post some before pics at some point.Thx

I would think the dash harness would be Pontiac to match Pontiac gauge cluster and such. Ditto for rear harness. The underhood should be pretty basic but different to match Chevy connections...JMO..

Gas455 (Greg) posts on here and has one he has done a nice job on...Street & strip.
He is located "down under"... Where are you located?

Take a few deep breaths and a few days to lay out everything you have and make a mental inventory first. Divide it all into groups.
Then start making a list of what's identifiable. You may find that's it's pretty much all there, right down to the trim screws for the glovebox...

My Laurentian is a Canadian version sold new by Holden(GM) Australia.

It has the same dash as a 59 Chev, Chev chassis.

I've been told that the front sheet metal is slightly a different size, although it looks the same.

I went off a 59 Chev wiring harness for mine....but have since had the car completly rewired from scratch using Dakota Digital guages.

Have you got any pics of the car...and the interior???
