Welcome friend. You have come to the right place. That is not my area of expertise, but most of the guys on this site are pretty smart on this stuff. You'll get professional friendly advice here.

Howdy from Kansas!
Perhaps another donor C/K truck from the late 70's will pop up.

I doubt the electronics would swap, but I'm not sure. They could probably be retrofitted, but my guess is that it would be more work than it's worth. An S10 is a mini pickup, the body parts won't fit. I think you can buy a wiring harness in the store on this site.

They are not gpoing to be the same. You need to find one as close to your year as possible, and matching your trucks options.

You need to get a harness from a 73-87
Shouldn't be to hard to find
They usually get thrown away with the body when it goes to the crusher
Does yours not have any wires at all ?
