PARKING LIGHTS ON 67
IS IT COMMON FOR THE PARKING LIGHTS TO GO OFF WHEN THE HEAD LIGHTS ARE TURNED ON A 67 ??????? AND IS THERE SOME WAY TO GET THEM TO STAY ON WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ????

Yes they are supposed to go off when the headlights are turned on. I was thinking of making them stay on also while the headlights are on. I think it's in the headlight switch and a later model swotch would have to be used. Someone correct me if I'n wrong.

May work if you can get the harness to plug to the new switch.

if ya want them to come on w/ the headlights, wire them w/ a relay off the headlights, but fed from a different power source. had the same situation w/ my GTO and did it this way.

I had an old 64 Chevy PU that was like your 67. I found there was an unused terminal on the light switch, that was still powered when the headlights came on. I moved the connector for the parking lights to that terminal, and then the parking lights stayed on with the headlights.
