Easier isn't?correct.
You fix the 40yr old problem, not add a future headache to it with more wires, more connections, and MORE corrosion to have to bugger about in the future.
We make fun of cars that show up for sale with easy fixes all the time..just bybass?it, just use some other hot wire...etc.

That requires replacing the FOE harness as its usually corroded
wires etc. and usually easier to add the relay to the system that
takes the 12v from the front post straight to the starter rather
than through the ignition .

Use a relay where for what?
Why not just fix the current issue?

I'd
bench test the starter before you get a new one.?
The Old Buggers are very sensitive to current flow (and also
have a wire for cold start I think) that makes them prone to
not starting.?
A simple solution if the starter bench tests OK is to add a
relay in the system so the full 12V is applied directly to the
starter.
If that's your issue, search rennlist for the way to wire in
the relay....
