Wire diagram should be in the literature section, probably in there service letters under specifications.
As far as circuitry, it shouldn't be that much different than my 37. The fuel gauge is the only gauge that needed a voltage step down. The others are mechanical and the Amp meter doesn't care. I'd go through the fuel gauge testing in the service manual. It's important that gauge itself is grounded or it won't read correctly. I small 12v bench too power supply that I use to check all my electric items and bulbs before they go in the car. I have a 12v-6v runtz installed on the back of the gauge. Which also needed to be grounded. I always treat unknown wiring and brakes like my arch-enemy last worked on them. Original wiring at this point should be considered past its prime and unsafe.
