1929 Roadster

I figured out the light bail and ran the headlight and horn wiring.
Can anyone offer assistance to where to run the wiring to the rear.
Does it go on top or bottom or inside the frame rail with the clips which I have 10 of. Where on the rail to place the clips or do I wing it.
Photos would be great.
Regards
Michael

Really no need for pics. The rear wire goes under the steering and right down the lower edge of the frame and across the top of the rear end to the left tail light.

Be sure to pass through the small hole on the main cross member where it attaches to the frame rail, parting off the brake light switch wires at the cross member.

wires are not clipped to the bottom of the main frame below the frame so the wire is exposed,
the wire is clipped inside the main frame.

Oh so sorry I was not more specific, but I figured that in order to pass through the hole in the cross member it was plain the wires had to run inside the frame rail, my bad for leaving it unexplained better.

Yea, but you cheat. You have that lift in your garage, I'm not laying on the ground to take pictures when I have someone like you to just stand, point, and click.

Thanks Mitch
