Post 77 450slc does not turn over

My dad and I purchased a non running 450slc the other day and we have been trying to get it to run and nothing is working, we are thinking it is some sort of electrical issue because we found a kill switch with a lot of random wires connected to it. We also think it could be the starter not letting it turn over. I personally dont know much about these cars and I just want to get it running.

Time to learn.

Pull out the aftermarket mess and restore the starting circuit to original.

New battery is a must.

You are working on an expensive project, are you OK with that?

The aftermarket system is out, I havent found a diagram that shows what wires go where. We have been using jumper cables for power.
