Ok so after fixing some bulb issues in the dash and replacing instrument panel sockets and replacing the headlight switch connector along with my air conditioner control assy repairs. My right fender indicator and the front turn signal are not working and have no power going to the white wire or dark blue in the connector. Not sure why it quit when it always worked before. Tested bulb with 12 volts to connectors and they work. Also note that when turning on the right turn signal the rear tail lamp is dimmer then the left. I looked at the wiring and trying to see where I may have broke a wire. Please help as I can't seem to locate problem. Note: this is a non tilt steering system and have looked at the posts regarding these issues but see nothing I can put my finger on other then maybe the switch but the right rear works so I crossed that off as being good. Any one know where the feed to the right front is in my dash or where may be my issue?

Tony thanks but I have checked your post and didn't find what I was looking for and doing the search was difficult. I didn't want to have to pull the steering wheel but may have to. As I stated I did do a lot of the pretesting already and I thank you for your input and info which may come in handy if I need to refer to later.
Thanks Sincerely
Ray
The lights run through the turn signal switch. Pull the lower dash connector and look for the 3 connectors that go to the turn signal switch.
Start there and check for power.

Thank You for your input as this is more then likely the problem. Which as you read I was doing a lot of stuff in and around the dash. I haven't checked it yet but will today and report back if I found the problem.
Thanks Sincerely
Ray
Ok I have found the problem and it was found to be in the connector that is outside the steering column that feeds the indicator switch. Some of the wire pins must have gotten tugged on when doing all the other stuff. Another thing I can check off my list.
Thanks
Ya gotta love that.... I bet you walked inside felling pretty good too. :-)

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?
My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.
Many thanks,

Hey guys,
I have installed the same Edelbrock carb and have done everything the same as Jason’s carb and intake project. In the spring and summer months the car starts, runs and idles great! In the fall and winter months on a cold start, the car starts awful and wants to die until it warms up. I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…
