Welcome to the list -- you can either make yourself crazy, or find someone 
with a 66 or 67 nearby and take a look at their car with a video or digital 
camera and take 100s of pictures.

There is a part under the dash to the right to the steering wheel on my 66 
that looks like a relay, but I don't think that it what it really is, and 
when it is disconnected some of the instruments don't work.  The venders have 
them, I think.  But check to see if it is there and hooked up.  Do you have 
the wiring diagram, it is on the web.

Anyone on the list close to Ken and Tammy?

Or if you want, perhaps someone with a similar year can send you pictures, 
but its best to see one running and in person.
