Actually, your's looks not that bad. I'm glad you have some of the wires labeled (#4 in the second shot). You might want to tape wrap some of the wires together that are going to the same component groups. Also I see some relays dangling. I 3D printed a relay holder for my two flasher relays to keep them out of the way (public library has several 3D printers). There are a number of metal bend tabs that are used to hold wire harnesses in place. See if there are any that you could utilize that could help organize the wires. If nothing else, no one will be able to see the wires once the dash is put back together.

Remember that this car pre-dates cars with circuit boards and ribbon cable so there will be a lot more wires strung behind the dash.

thanks! I do have a relay block, but unsure where it bolts too.

Relay block or fuse box? Fuse box mounts down to brackets on the tunnel with a long screw
