    Need some help getting my 1939 Flathead fired up. All the wiring was gone on my 38 Coupe when I got it so I'm starting from scratch. Right now all I want to do is get the motor running. I would like to just wire the motor to run in the ch***is for now. I've seen a lot of old Ford wiring diagrams but they are somewhat hard to follow. Everything is stock. If someone could just draw or tell me the wiring sequence from the Key Switch / ****on to the Starter, Coil, Resistor, Starter sol., Relay, Gen.. in the proper order. That would be very helpful.

    Any one care to draw this one out? I'm starting from scratch here. I know it might seems elementary but, I was told once no question is a dumb question.
    Thanks
