I can't speak to the cost, although that seems very high to me. It's been a few years since I bought a complete harness from Y n Z's, but in the late 80s, I bought one for a customer's Packard for around $490 - so apply the usual inflation percentages and you should come close. Of course your car is much more complicated, so add another 30% or so. I think the 59 LeBaron harness would work fine in your 59 Crown - you'll have some extra wires, just tape them back in the harness with electrical tape and forget them. Since they already have the pattern, I don't think the price would be nearly that high. Just call them up and ask- they're nice folks. Let us all know what the going rate is in the new century!

Is that about average? Another question: since YNZ made a harness for a '59 LeBaron, is it possible they could use that pattern for my '59 Crown (4-door sedan)? I know I'm going to need one for my '59 as it appears there was a fire in the car at one time. As intriguing as it sounds to make my own (and I love puzzles!) I don't think an Imperial is the place for a beginner, yes?
