To re-wire or not to re-wire....
#2

If the old wires (and their housings) are in decent shape, I leave them.

In the case of a Truetone I've slowly been working on for a couple months, half of the wiring was the old timey cloth covered stuff (which was fine), and half was covered in rubber, which was all crumbling. I replaced the crumbly stuff and left it at that. The old cloth covered stuff seems to last just about forever.
