@Nacho-RT74 nice diagrams! Would a 1970 B body be the same as E Body and 1971 and later B?

Yes, only in 1970. Standard Coronet and Satellite

I'm leaning in the direction of a wiring problem behind the dash, or at the bulkhead, or the fuse box. (or all 3) Power goes into the headlight switch on the top spade connector (black, marked B1 on the back of the headlight switch). It should be hot at all times. This is for headlights ONLY...

Looks like you're doing it right! Signed..... The guy on eBay

Agreed Simple check...... Remove dome bulb (single element, dual contact). There SHOULD be 2 contacts in the socket. 1 should be hot at all times. That is the pink wire, if I remember correctly. The other contact is ground (yellow). If the pink wire isn't hot, or the yellow isn't grounded (door...

On You Tube, late at night when me chores be done: Highway Patrol (LOVE the late 50s cars) Dragnet The Untouchables

Brings back memories of the '69 gTx that I kept trying to buy in Santa Maria, CA. back in the late 80s - mid 90s. Original owner, 8 track, 440 Air Grabber. Copper with tan interior. I had stopped by at least 5-6 times and talked with him about it. By the time he called me to sell it was too...

The chrome bezel is 68-69 B Body only. A Bodies look close, but they won't work. There are no repros. You'll have to either buy another radio (with a nicer bezel), or possibly one of the guys here might have one in their stash. I restore these thumbwheel radios. Only a very few have a really...

And if that doesn't work out I have rebuilt originals

Looking forward to it! My roots are in 'The Bay' (Mt View). Attended a few MoPar club events back in ......the 1970s! It's a long way from Okie-lahoma but I'm doing it again (as a professional spectator). I recognized a few cars from back 'then (Bill Bridge's HEMI 'Cuda for 1)

Did you get this handled? You can use any of the '68-'70 B body 3sp switches, and '69-'71 C body 3sp switches. Swap the knob (held in with a roll pin) from your 2sp to the 3sp (minor trimming on the inside sides MAY be necessary).

Unplug the switch. Still have a power drain? Verify the colors B=Pink P=Dark Blue A=Brown F1=Red F2=Green W=? (sometimes white, sometimes brown with a tracer)

Good to see the progress. Great car!!
