Question Restoring 1960 Mercury M100

Hey guys, new member here and first post. In the middle of helping my dad restore his 1960 Merc that he picked up about 15 years ago. Having a couple issues with wiring that hoping youguys could help with. I have found a couple diagrams but nothing seems to match up perfectly to what he has. Is mercury different than ford or are we just looking at wrong diagrams? Also think he is missing a trim piece or two on the front end but cant find a great quality picture to compare to. Any help would be appreciated and I'll try to post some pics up in the next week or two.

I would call these guys. See if they have a wiring diagram for your truck. I ordered one from them for my truck and got it 2 days later.

I checked and they dont list mercury pickup. Dont want to buy the ford one and find out they used different color wires. Looking to find out if anyone with a mercury can confirm it is the same.

It will be the same for the Mercury the only difference between Ford and Mercury trucks was trim and badging all the other bits are the same.

I bought 1 for my 70 AMC Javelin project about 10 years ago best thing I bought for the car.

I would say even if the colors don't match it would be well worth getting just so you see how it should be run.
