T.R.E.,
Thanks, I needed that after two days of tracking down wires and such. 
It was made harder by having only two working fuses -- it seems to be 
that this fellow "repaired" or bypassed a lot of things that were 
working fine except for the improper fuses.
I have a temporary turn signal setup until I can get the switch 
repair kit tomorrow afternoon at the NAPA, they had to get it from 
the warehouse in Richmond, but they had one.
Drove it round the block (after a 20' delay chatting with a guy who 
just pulled over to talk about it), it has a wicked shudder at speed 
(what speed, I dunno, I of course forgot to replace the speedo cable 
when I put it back together for the fourth time), so I'm afraid I 
need to get it into a frame shop to check on the front end -- the 
crossmember up front is bent, wanna make sure the frame isn't 
twisted.  Could, though, also be the tires/wheels.
Anyway, rambling yet again, thanks for the support!
Best,
Joel
