<VV> '66, 110 with powerglide

[Harry Yarnell]

Classic case of bad battery connections. There's enough contact for low 
current loads (dash/ instruments) to work, but the connection goes south 
when a heavy load (headlamps, starter) is called for. Take apart the battery 
terminals and wire brush/sand them.
