Default oops! Routing..wiring 1940 Ford coupe

I just sent a question and left of model of vehicle.

1940 Ford coupe. Painted frame setting apart from other parts.

What is the proper routing of wiring from the firewall to tail lights and the fuel tank?

thank you,

When the wiring leaves the kidney shaped cover on the firewall it goes down to the drivers side frame rail and will pickup the dimmer switch then continues down the frame to the master cylinder the on back to where the frame kicks up and the wire will go to the fuel sender . If you have two tailights you will need the crossover wire for the pass side taillight. The spring clips is all that holds the wiring to the frame . Be sure to double check when you run the harness from the firewall to the frame that the clutch pedal clears,its really tight around there .
