Robert  Pete Groh, Ellicott City MD (KeyGuy)  If you still need a used
switch, give me your mailing address. I will put one in the mail for
you with directions on how to pull the lock insert out of your present
switch. 
I pick up used switch at the car show on the East Coast; pulling the
lock insert form the switch. If car owners who restore their cars, get
a car build record and find the switch or lock insert has been changed
i may have a used lock insert that matchs the number on the build
record.

On my wanted list, FS 955.

On early cars the key code letters/number were stamped on the face of
the switch. Around 1963- 1965, the cars used a FS, single side key.
Depending on what parts were still on the shelf, may have a lock insert
with the key number on face of the switch. If owners loose their key
for later models, I have a ring of pre-cut FS keys (75 number) 876-955
that I can send to owners, have to insert the key into the lock,
determine the correct key code number. At present you see car that use
the aftermarket Lucas key, with 5 numbers on same. The american key
blank that fits the lock is a Ilco LF 10 or LF 5. 
Kind regards

has been lost somewhere and I've got a PepBoys replacement in there
now.
