Great job!  

Our '72 has hydraulic brakes and in order to make things MORE complicated the brake lights were connected to a hydraulic switch.  High pressure, brake lights on, low pressure, brake lights off.  If the switch fails you have to open the system to replace the switch and then bleed the brakes!  I bypassed all that nonsense and put a switch on the pedal shaft.

Happy travels!!!!!
