I drug this old 71 SE up from Oklahoma. .very solid car but sat outside since 1979. .car was traded off at a local dealer and the dealer took the car to his farm and there it sat since 1979. .it looks pretty unmolested except for the wheels someone must have put on it back in the day. .the mice have ate the plug wires and the wire pigtail I have in the pictures. .just wondering what some of these wires were for. I don’t see where they would have hooked. .maybe an option it didnt have? Shows 42,000 miles. .I’m trying to decipher if that’s original or not. .anyways in the first picture there are two wires ate off which join into one female terminal right where the headlight harness comes thru the firewall. .2nd picture shows a wire with female end just dangling there from the harness that actually goes to the headlight bulbs. .what would that have been for?

Sorry I meant radiator support. .the dual horns are both on the passenger side. . Maybe it was for headlight wipers? This car didn’t have them but maybe was wired for them? I have a 72 SE that I thought I could compare wiring with, but of course it’s different at that location
 
I really didn't knew or expect headlight wipers to be an option on mopar products from the early 70s.

I just assumed we germans came up with this since my 560 SEC has it and it is extremely rare.
 
Black with a light green tracer would be for a fender top turn signal indicator. But I believe the plug would be different. Could be the ground wire for the headlight doors motor. The headlamp washer motor power is brown with a tracer.
