Vintage Speedster Wiring

I think the small bulb in the headlights are the park lamps and the turn signal is in the small lights by the grilles below the headlight buckets.

Scott,

Here is how my VS built car is set up:

Headlight switch half out = small bulb in the bottom of the headlight bucket is on (parking light) and the light on the outside edge of my teardrops come on (taillights).

Headlight switch all the way out = parking lights and taillights stay on and the headlight comes on.

The brake lights are the inside edge of the teardrops on my car and the blinkers are in the outside edge of the the teardrop with the taillights.  The bulb on the outside edge has a dual filament.

Hope that helps.

Thank you guys, very helpful

Is the turn signal light only for turn signal? Or is it some kind of running light also. Thanks boys

On mine, the front turn signal (beside the horn grill) is for the directionals only.  It has a single-filament bulb so it would be difficult to use it as both a running light AND directional (although GM did that for a few years by using some funky grounding techniques).

The parking light is the little one at the bottom of the headlight bucket.

Same on a VS built car as well.

The front beehive is directional only and the small bulb in the bucket is the parking/running light.

Awesome thank you for the help!
