I'm pretty flummoxed right now. I got no high beams, but the marker lights come on only when I select high beam. Also, I have some extra wires that aren't on the schematic.
Can someone send me a picture of where the B terminal is located on the dimmer switch?

Figured out the dimmer situation.
I had applied the bright circuit power to the marker lights.
Because.... There is no green wire in the forward part of this new loom.
I'll just run a green line from the firewall to the marker lights and should all be good.
Now to figure why the blinkers and brake lights aren't working

Because I have deleted my speed sensor and am running a Dakota Digital instrument cluster, I have a bunch of extra wires hanging out doing nothing. I taped them all off just for the sake of safety.
I'm gonna start just unplugging and replugging turn signal wires at random now

Welp, my turn signal and front bib light problems have been troubleshot, but not solved.
This loom was for a late 69 40, so it doesn't have bib light accommodations.
Also, the loom has one to many green/yellow wires going to the rear lights circuit.
For now I have everything working except the turn signals and bib lights so will drive it as is.

I went wire shopping today, and most everything I could find was Chinese junk with colors they don't match the wiring diagram.
It's at that time I realized I have a bunch of Toyota wires with correct wire colors in that old loom.
The fire only took out a few wires, and I have the loom about halfway peeled back.
I also found the source of the fire to be the fusible link I installed in the starter circuit. The fusible link is fine, but the wires burned back to the key.

I still haven't gotten the blinkers to work. I have two green and yellow wires coming from the harness and only one green and yellow heading to the rear.
I did take the opportunity to strip out the green and black wire from the old loom and created a marker light circuit. Which works great!
