Is this the after affect of any changes you made? If not, could be the turn signal switch is kaput.
My 69 GTX. Turn signals worked only in weird combinations, ditto rear lights and brake lights. Happened all of the sudden. I checked grounds, no impact. On a hunch changed out the turn signal switch, fixed all. Appears the switch was shorting out.

How many wires to each taillight socket? If 2 they ground through the housing. If 3 then they have a ground wire. On my Roadrunner iirc there is a ground wire screwed to the latch support.
Same question for the front lights. Iirc the Roadrunner grounds through the housing.

Where to start to look to improve the ground. The lights are plenty bright outside of the bezel:) appears to be grounded all the time somewhere in the system. with jumpers, connect the bulbs' metal housing(s) (both/all bulbs) to a known ground & see if this resolves it cuz that continuity is the bottom line for bulbs then if that is it you can go about reextablishing that continuity.

The housing grounds to the body through the bolts. Clean the paint off the studs and nuts and try again.
