Default 35 Ford coupe taillight wiring

Where does the crossover wiring for the passenger side taillight go?

Does it go through the body (interior) of the car or behind the gas tank under the body.

Thanks,
Daryl

It runs behind the gas tank under the body. Most often I've seen it clipped to the inside channel of the rear crossmember.

According to the 35-36 Ford Book page 156, the crossover wire for the tail lights attaches to the rear edge of the gas tank using B-14565 clips.
