Good points Rebel.

Cheers. Was a good show … mainly vintage / post war, but a good showing of Yanks… 20 maybe… Including 68Roadrunner with his Dart - looking cool as ever – good to meet you again. A few older Plymouths, and a fella I met at Tatton with his GL Charger. Had a chat to Sam – she’s had pretty much every Mo...

Only if you or the PO has had the dash out. If you've just added the front cable (alt to starter solenoid). Then you effectively have two charging circuits........Not a problem, as the addition will charge the battery, but the potential old wiring issues in the dash may be retained! Understood. Amm...
