Starter switch question

[Joe Flanagan]

I have the original switch assembly from my car. I do not have the key/cylinder that came with it. I've seen them for sale from various vendors. If I wanted to start my engine using this switch, would the key and cylinder be required or can you turn the switch some way without them?

Joe you can get a lock and key from napa. It will have a more modern blank with it but will work just fine. I have one in my 46 pickup.

O'Reilly auto parts also sells one. About 10 or 12 bucks. Has a pentastar

style key.

Here's a post I made on that topic a while back........

Replacement ignition tumbler

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My son in law brought with him a new replacement tumbler with key for

the ignition of a P15. Said he got it at O'Reilly Auto.....even comes with

a pentastar style key.

The brand is Lock Smart, part number LC14400. I think he said it was around $12.
