Pos ground means positive goes to the car frame via the bare braided cable. The other wire to starter solenoid would be the hot, or in this case the negative from battery. This schematic is the best I have for a 55 but you can see that red wire with the 20amp fuse goes from starter solenoid (hot from battery) to solenoids, through solenoids to motor and then there is a little ground shown inside motor.

On the control switch, the relay contacts internally go to ground, through relay and out on A & B. All you have to do is connect the starter switch to ground and then to A or B, which will bypass the internal relays and you will go through limit switch to energize solenoids that way.
