To all the folks who responded to my inquires and whining last fall. Thanks! I have resolved my "dim headlight problem." Because of an early winter here in the northeast I wasn't able to solve the problem till snow melt and warmer temps. The "dim headlight problem" turned out to be a bad ground. I was prepared for the headlight rewire procedure, but didn't need to open 'er up. Not just yet anyhow. I appreciate all the input I received from everyone. Ready to put "Bessy Lou" back on the road after 23 years!!! My only roadblock to state inspection is wipers. Wiper motor test good, may be the switch. Any comments on replacing the switch without dashboard removal? Haven't seen anything in the manuals.

Thanks again. Drive it like ya stole it!!!!
