1970 F-250 V-8 360 Camper special

Post by Aaron2498 »

I just turned 18, and I was saving up to buy my first vehicle, I got the truck from the heading of this post. I am new to the truck work scene, I am starting from pretty much day one on knowledge of how trucks work and such. My dad has restored two 68' Camaros and I am trying to get him to help, but I think I am mostly on my own on this. I was hoping you guys would be able to help me out along the way. An issue with the wiring the rear right brake light, turn signals do not work, nor do the reverse lights. What would be a good place to start research on what I need to do.

Welcome aboard! I remember being in about that same place. My first was/,is since i still have it, a 69 F100. It takes work and patience, but you learn a lot and it's a blast! ...well, mostly. :wink:

As for your wiring question, this link is all the wiring diagrams you could possibly need.
