Frenchblue72,
There should be 3 wires coming from the left rear taillight socket, and 2 from the passenger side socket. 1 of the wires from the passenger side connects to the 1 of the 3 on the drivers side, the other 2 wires head up to the cab.
I'll poke my head under the '62 in a bit to see what colors go to which wires.

Here's a link to the '63 dash wiring. About middle of the diagram towards the top is the plug for the turnsignal wires.

There is also a wiring diagram for the '63 V8 & inline 6 engine diagrams, as well as the rear tail light wiring diagram.

Thanks you so much david I have been working on this thing all morning and the more I get into the more I find wrong looks like its gonna have a little of 72 parts mixed into it before I am done... I finished the engine compartment and taillight wireing.. I had to use 72 taillight pigtails so I will have to merge the wires under the rear of the truck..... Pics to follow..

Hey david thanks for all the pics and help I got the truck done and it has left the building.. I just ordered a new column harness for it and get the turn signals and running lights fixed on it.. Too bad the coulumn is so hacked that it needs to be replaced........
