Have you replaced the headlight switch? the instrument lights are powered by this switch, but also go thru a reostat that dims or brightenes them. Not uncommon at all to have that part of the switch go bad.

The marker light bulbs were a #97 as I remember on my C600

Thanks. The only thing I have to figure out is why when the blinkers are on the opposed tail light flickers a little. Any ideas

Yes that's what I thought also. I only found 1 ground from the body to the block so I ran another from the block to the frame. Should I run another somewhere?

Usually body to block, block to frame and body to frame should cover it.

Add dash to body/frame for a ground. Not sure how a dash isn't attached in such a way as to be grounded with the body, but we did have that issue in a '67 El Camino. WAG, serving suggestion....
