All the replies are really appreciated, and I have somethings to check out now based on the input.

For the battery, the negative lead goes to the starter. The positive lead appears to go a aftermarket kill switch located right at the bottom of the seat. I need to remove the seat and floor to get a better look at everything, but I'm guessing that is where the ground is, too, as headlights work, etc. Just not the brake lights.

Again, thanks for the guidance! Really helpful to a new guy here.

I have memories riding around in this car with my grandfather when I was a kid and it's been fun getting it back on the road and driving my kids around the block. I'm sure it's not just me, but these cars seem to always have a sentimental place in people's hearts.

Thanks again and stay safe out there.
