Thanks to all the replies I got on the wiring question.
The most right answer was from Brad Kahler. The ground loop in the plinth
bundle with the 2 eyelets on them go on the bottom securing studs of the
tack and the speedo. I was confused because this wire is not in that
tach/speedo bundle. As soon as I got my old body under the dash and
looking up...... I tried Brads suggestion.... it worked as a natural and I
sort of remembered it that way.
Thanks again

Brian,
Any chance that it might be for the two lights above the speedo and tach?
Thats something that wasn't even in my car. The harness had been
snipped off so there were no connectors for me to worry about
documenting! Made it easy to tear the car down but its going to be tough
putting it back together!!
Good luck and let me know what you find.
