Where should the ground straps go on a '64 GTO?

One strap from the rear of the drivers side head to the firewall. Another strap from the coil bracket to the firewall; and the third a short one from the front of the passenger side inner fender to the frame. I can post some pictures if you need further direction

If you can post pics that would be great. Would not having enough grounds cause the electrical system to malfunction?

One word answer on the grounds YES all sorts of problems. most of the electrical problems on the board are ground related . most by dirty/rusty old connections that are not cleaned right or left off

DRIVE IT LIKE U'ALL STOLE IT!
