I think that's par for the course, rather than make separate model configs, they put "everything" on dash panel, then only hooked up what was optioned*. I recall having a few nonfunctional buttons, except radio was a delete panel.
It's just a little "different" to think backwards in positive ground terms, if hasn't been converted. Cloth wire is hardest to familiarize, if spent life in 12V (-) PVC shield world of colors.
I really need to decide what to do with my "P" project. Got a ton o money in it to sit a hulk and occupy parts shelves. The other one that wasn't supposed to come first is hopefully nearing the rebuild end. i"m working on it today AGAIN.
But that one even got way-layed by a new lease vehicle. Life interferes with best of plans. Kinda like that little shiny steel ball on the pinball table, sometimes it takes a whirl, makes lights and sounds, and sometimes goes straight down the drain...
* - unfortunately, unlike survivor brands, if one doesn't have a build sheet/other documentation in/on theirs, there's little way to find out "as delivered". That's even getting scarcer as paper is ephemera.
