My    - keep paying attention to detail now as it will save you a lot of grief and troubleshooting later on

Disconnect the battery, unscrew the fuse box and flip it over. The hot wires to these two fuse spots is either broken off or disconnected on purpose by the previous owner. There is a bridge strip on the back side that takes power to different sides. Once unfastened and hanging you can check the backside terminals for power to the fuse sockets.

This may help.  Just select your car.  I have the back of the 70 RR I just replaced with a late model blade fuse box I can post.  Won't be exact but very close

update: wipers working,dash lights working i think the dimmer switch is open so i connected the tan wire to the yellow/bl stripe by-passing the dimmer,now next thing is no power to the headlight sockets,both blinkers work (front) when i put the running lights on just the drivers side lights up,this could take some time...This site is awsome...

Check the headlight foot switch, that's where the power goes first.

I did unplug the foot switch and had no power there either,time to dig a little deeper!
