Looks like the wiring for the tail-lights is similar on most if not all of them through '66. I was wrong about the single connectors if yours is pre-68 as it doesn't have them anyway. Up to '66 the fuse-box is 10 fuses and the wiring matches what you reported on your car. Check out the wiring pics on my site if Russ' are different - his show a twin filament bulb for the fronts - side marker I guess. With the side lights turned on, get a bulb and touch the wire that supplies the lamp holder on the solder blob on the bottom and the metal outside on a good earth - don't get the wire direct on the outer case or the earth, or you'll be replacing another fuse! If it lights it's a problem in the bulb holders. Dave.
