what wires connect together to start my 1984 camaro?

we are trying to star a 1984 camaro but cant figure out which wires go together do that.. We were told a red wire would be the one but dont have one we do have however tan, neon green, yellow,green and white, blue, purple, baby blue, and grey. If any one knows which ones go together to get the car started i would really appreciate it

Ya, you need to tell us more about what you are doing, but you're probably talking about the wires on the steering column. Can you remove the ignition switch and push it forward manually?

Looks like tasks are occurring in the wrong order for the car to successfully reach drivability status.

Agreed!

Pic posted looks like the wiring that goes to the blinker combination switch, with the connector chopped off, not the ign wiring.
