Here is a wiring diagram that was included in a NOS directional switch kit I installed in a 53 sedan delivery.

Re: 1953 Mainline Turn ignal wiring
The tail light label on the diagram should read brake light. If you need it I have the NOS rear harness that came with the kit. My car was prewired for an after market switch. Send me a PM if you need it.

Re: 1953 Mainline Turn ignal wiring
That sidewise diagram possessed me so I opened up my photoshop. At least 2 wires have wrong colors but I went according to the sidewise diag.
Feed me corrections and I'll edit them in. One this tho -- what is a 'BLINKER'? |

It's a light that flashes on and off as opposed to one that stays lit.

Re: 1953 Mainline Turn ignal wiring
Just a common term used for a flashing light. In many cases it is referring to the brake filament in the tail light bulb when it is wired to "blink" on and off as a turn signal indicator or a similar filament on the front. Really a slang term I believe, I would consider it a verb rather than a noun.
