The chances of finding any drawings for a home that old are not very good.

Before you start you may want to read:

Upgrade electrical from two prong to three prong

Your home was built prior to the adoption of the Federal HUD building standards. Some of the mid-60s homes were built to drag around the country on back roads, and were constructed like tanks.

If you pop off a few of the wall panels and look at the electric runs you will be able to tell how the rest of the home is wired. Manufactured homes, even pre-code ones, have very standardized assembly systems
