On a side note...These switches are apparently getting harder to find and may run some serious moolah if you do get lucky enough to locate one. Rebuilding is very easy and only costs are a little elbow grease and time. If your switch is giving you fits, don't panic and go looking for a new one. You can clean and service your existing one with little effort and chances are, it will work like new again. The car designers back in 62 may have been rocket scientists then, but this stuff is pretty basic by today's stabndards. Give it a shot if you think it will help. I'm going to be installing my rebuilt switch in the next couple days. I think it will do just fine once it's in there. Now, on to the flopping lever again. Ugh!!!

PS...It sure looks like the same can be done with the reverse light, reverse lockout switch on the column as well. It's very similar and nowhere near as complicated. I really recomment trying this before you run off spending possible big bucks on some NOS switch out there. That is, if you're lucky enough to find one.
