Default Starter solenoid & Alt hookup

Hope everyone had a great holiday. I have spent the last 7+ day working on my 66. I got the engine bay sandblasted and repainted and the engine back in her. Almost everything is hooked back up except the starter solenoid and the alternator. Now here is my dilemma. I bought new wiring harnesses for both the gauges and the main harness that connects the head lights, alt, etc. I also bought a new alt and solenoid. When I took everything out of the car originally, I used tape to mark what wire goes where. The writing has soooo much grease on it from the old parts I can not make out what I wrote, plus the old wires rigged, cut, spliced and very dirty. It is very difficult to determine the colors of the old wires. The new wires are just that, nice and clean. The wire's color scheme is easy to see, but I am lost as to what goes where.

I need to know the proper placement of the wires, based on their colors to both the starter solenoid and the alternator. Can anyone help?

Thanks

No sure if this is the same as a 66? I hope it helps you!

1965MustangFastback, Thanks for the help. It is a little hard to read, but I am sure that is my crappy printer.
