We can put a later electric solenoid in Pinky and replace the ignition
switch with one from a MKIII.
Now you just turn the key to start it., no more cable.
We did this to the Holy Sprite and the LadyBug.
The MKII dash has the smaller ignition key switch and the MKIII switch
fits right in the same hole.
Let me know, I have the parts but I do not have a new electric solenoid,
I don't think I even have a good used one.
I used them all over the years.
And do NOT get a Lucas solenoid in a green box that was made in India.
Do NOT buy a Lucas key switch from India either, it's not even close.
I have a switch, we can use a Ford solenoid or maybe someone has an NOS
Lucas (orange or red box) they can part with.
Option #2, just get the original pull solenoid.
