Hump Day on the '63 Fuelie

Lots of ToDo's before Suisun City...
    - Electrical: Parking Brake "alarm" light doesn't work.  Need to track down.
    - Fast idle on Fuel Injection is @ 2200 RPM, need to drop it to 1800
    - Seat mounting brackets need sanded, primed & painted on both seats

Ahhh, that doesn't look "correct"  ; )

Looks like some wiring clean-up is necessary

Step 1: Check fuses (look good)
Step 2: Check switch (looks fine)
Step 3: Wire the ground & power switch wires together. The "brake" light activates, so the bulb is fine.
Step 4: Wiring looks questionable, so let's clean that up...

This is the '63-only parking brake alarm switch.  The capacitor  mounts at the end of that black bolt.  This green wire had a questionable solder connection.

   Some wiring clean-up, new connectors and BINGO!  I have a flashing "Brake" light again when the parking brake is activated.

Fast idle adjustment screw (tip of pen). Counter-clockwise to drop the idle down.

Me likey!  1,800 RPM at cold start.

Gonna start with the driver-side seat brackets

Wire brush, sandpaper, Navy Jelly, acetone.  Rinse & Repeat.

A little touch-up on the side rails as well

Primed & painted!

And Hey - look what I found on eBay!
