My 63 Rambler American Tech Manual has a wiring diagram that says a large green wire goes from the large top "B" terminal on the solenoid to the battery "+" side. Two additional smaller wires, both red also go to the same large "B" terminal. One terminates at the horn relay and the other at the fuse relay. A brown wire goes from the lower "S" terminal to a junction box where it comes out green and terminates at the "sol" terminal on the ignition switch.

My car's actual wiring has the large battery wire at the 'B" terminal and only one red wire. The lower terminal has the brown wire. The variance may be because of the additional circuits for the "twin stick" option on my car.

Mine is also a twin stick, and it has the same wiring setup as yours.
