I had same problem since I owned my '69 1600, wouldn't drive it at night for
a long time. When the tranny went last month and i had everything out, I
replaced the wires coming from the alternator, and put in new battrery
cables as well. Seemed to fix it fine - the MAJOR culprit here (i think) was
the worn spot in the hot cable coming off the battery, which would
occasionally rub up against something. I'd get enough spasrk to keep
running, but all other electrical would dim/stop.
Also check the connections at the ignition switch, a loose one here could do
the same thing

Hello List,
I enjoyed all of the RA/Solvang stories and pics...
I have a problem with the headlights on my 67.5 1600. They seem to teeter
from
normal to bright quite a bit. It will do it while I'm sitting at a stop
light, when I'm cruising,
and when I signal. I think it may be that little copper piece in the
steering stalk, any ideas?
Thanks,
Robert
