Please help! Engine wiring harness and under dash harness needed for 1988

Hi All,
I' new to the forums. I have a 1988 Iroc Z 305 manual transmission Camaro. I need a new wiring harness for the motor and also an under dash wiring harness for the heat and air. My mechanic is having a hard time finding them. Im in too deep with my Camaro to give up.
Are there any out there?
What should I do?
Thanks in advance!

If you're in too deep to give up then you need to start learning how to do things without a "mechanic." Paying a mechanic to work/build one of these cars is a tremendous waste of money. A 60s/70s car that is worth 20-40K in a restored state would make sense on but not these cars. The value of these cars as even a low mileage, stock, excellent condition car is only now breaking into the teens. If the mechanic is having a hard time finding them I question if he is worth keeping around. I just went to Phoenix and found three 90-92 camaros that had good interior wiring and one still had a good engine harness. I'm going to Las Vegas next week and have already found a few yards with thirdgens. Interior wiring harnesses are probably the easiest items to find. Thirdgens are becoming scarce at yards but they are still out there. Hawks has the interior harness listed for $250 but its unknown if they had them in stock. I could probably find an interior harness without much hassle, I could pull it for you but it would be whatever the junkyard charged me($50-100?), plus shipping which would be at least $30, plus my fee.

Why do you need all of these harnesses? Was the car bought as a shell only? involved in a fire or flood?
