I would look at the fusebox, it should be the four-way type.
If the lights come on both sides check the positions of the white and the
red/green on the side of the fusebox nearest the front. The whites should
be on the second fuse up and the red/green on the third fuse up.
If only one side comes on check the other side of the fusebox, the greens
should be on the second fuse up and reds should be on the third and fourth
fuse up.
Just for completeness, there should be browns on the front of the bottom
fuse and purples on the back.

... War Eagle! :) ... anyway, while I was off, I had lots of time to work on
my 71 B ... a complete gut and rebuild ... sans engine. It was really
frustrating at times not being able to email y'all with questions, I could
have certainly used some solid answers without the need to play "magnum PI"
each and every time :). So, where I stand now is that its almost back
together. I had to come back here sooner than expected, so I was forced to
reassemble from a shell (no paint either) in only 5 weeks .. quite tiring.
I'm living in an apartment that frowns on automotive work in their parking
lot (a sacrafice I hated to make, but it was necessary). I've only cranked
the car and run it breifly (the night before I pulled out to move back
here). One thing I noticed is that I must have a wire or two crossed. When I
turn the ignition key to the first and second positions (before the starter
engages) the parking li!
>ghts come on even though the light switch is off. While this is happening,
my gagues don't power up. So, my assessment is that I've inadvertantly
switched a couple of wires when I pulled the loom back through and plugged
everything back in. anyone out there know where I should start? The wiring
diagram I have isn't too bad, but given that I was fairly careful when
reconnecting, I'd guess it's not a blatant switch.
