Where brake or turn didn't work the park would and viseversa.
The only reason I can think of for the entire rear lamp to quit is lost bulb socket ground to the body.

are you positive this wasnt a pre-existing deal? sounds like you have a bad ground or the socket is not grounded . take a bulb out of the other side and stick it in the side that dont work to make sure the bulb isnt the problem. i know this may sound dumb, but ive been a victim of crappy "new" bulbs lol

you are fast Redfish lol

All I know about the subject is the wiring in these old cars is very fragile and when you dropped the column something got tweaked or pinched. I would start by loosing the column back up and retracing your steps. I have had wires pinched or broken before and they are very difficult to spot you may have to start unwrapping tape if there is any. Just my opinion hopefully it may be of some help.:burnout:
