Thanks for the info.  Wish they had made the shop manual in color :-)

By the way, I took joe's picture and marked it up so you can see the piece that's missing in the picture you posted. The fuse goes into the hole and the retainer slips over it, pushes down (spring tension holds it) and half turn fastens it in place. There may be horn or headlight relays for other vehicles that use the same method so you may be able to find one of those if you need one. Click on the image to enlarge it and see it better.

Thanks Fid, I think you are correct, that part is missing or may still be in the box of parts that are in the trunk. Appreciate everyone's help. It truly takes a village to restore a car :-)

I'm just glad we can help.  I remember how tough it was trying to get service informatin together on my first K-F car (a 1951 Frazer sedan) and finding dead end after dead end.  This was back in the mid 1970's before things like the Handbook on CD, this web site and other places.
