<VV> Electrical problem

[LonzoVair at aol.com]

I believe that changed in 1967, so the "marker" lights stayed on with the  
headlights... I once had an anal retentive cop try to give me a ticket for 
that  about 10 years ago in my '65 Monza... I took the ticket to the police 
chief  and asked that his employee stop pulling over cars that are older than 
him to  give out non-moving violations... (the chief had old cars as well, 
and the  before mentioned Barney Fife got a good butt chewing... just for 
trying to be a  know-it-all)... I used to see that cop all the time, and he 
never smiled. Thank  goodness I'm no longer in the area.
Later,
Lonzo

If I remember right the headlights and front parking light are  not on at 
the
same time on an early.  There is a tech tip in Tech  Guide (not sure which
volume) on what wire to move on the light switch to  make them both be on
when the headlights are on.

half position,  parking lights and tail lights come on. If I pull headlight
switch all the  way out, tail lights still on. But, depending on high beam
switch position,  I either have headlights and parking lights both on or 
both
off. Does this  problem sound like a bad high beam switch, headlight switch,
or wiring  harness?  Thanks
