This video is super interesting. Would like to see more videos that go in to the detail of the work you're doing to really tell the story of your passion and the restoration of the van.
The main bit that amazes me is not all the wiring, or your attention to quality soldering, or your projected million more joints, is the fact you have all those connectors, that are not years old with tarnished tags that take three times your soldering time just to clean them enough that they'll take any solder at all.
Well, each one after this will of course take less time as the preamble and initial set-up is done. You could also save some time and effort by upgrading to heat shrink sleeves rather than the Hellerman,
Hi thanks for your useful suggestion, we have used the Hellerman sleeves as they were used originally and it is important for us to maintain it as close as possible to how it was built.

Beautiful
This reminds me the times I had to replace 64 pin plugs and sockets on studio camera cables after students punched nail’s through the cable.
Those look quite like McMurdo connectors? I am in the USA but have had my hands in quite a few Rank Cintel telecine chains since the early 1980s.
Really interesting video
Hi, thanks for your kind comment, There are many more videos of our work to find (and explore. ( in TH-cam)
Nice video

More importantly, never leave your *sleeve stretcher on a chair or the next person to sit down will get a big surprise! (*not their actual nickname)
