Thanks for the followup, every day it seems as if the next move will get this baby going, appreciate the advice.

I checked the wiring mess, apparently there was some sort of after alarm.

I disconnected all wires that went to the alarm, used a dremel to clean the fuses, replaced all fuses and turn the key, I now have dash lights, gauge lights, headlights, flashers. the battery light and oil light are coming on, but the oil light turns off when cranking. The battery light stays on.

I checked where the green wire, it plugs into the switch on one side, the other side of the switch shows nothing.

I will check the firewall junction box and cranking next.
