Yesterday my brother and I worked on getting my old cuda started. After mucking around with the points, she finally chugged and ran, BUT the starter kept turning while the engine chugged. We thought there was something wrong with the starter, but after I crawled under the car, I discovered that the two wires were touching, so, I simply moved them away from each other. That save me from returning a brand new starter to the parts store.
 
It would be well worth your time to study examples of original wire routing, support, and insulation.
