I finally got the center panel out far enough to see what was going on. Loosening the choke wire under the hood and disconnecting the oil pressure gauge did the trick. I have one ground wire that is stumping me.
Looking at the center panel from in the car, I can't find the ground attachment for the left light bulb that illuminates the oil pressure gauge and ammeter. It is attached to the "post" next to the bulb between the fuel and temp gauge, but the end that appears to go to the left side bulb was loose and I can't find a place to attach it.
Any ideas or pictures. Next, I'll attack the turn signal indicator.
Whomever designed the electrics behind that panel was psychotic, on drugs, or an engineer who was going to open a Lucas Only Electric Repair Shop in his retirement!
I did manage to allow some pent up smoke to escape from some of the wires, but an ancient fuse put a stop that quickly.
