After looking at my switch panel the switches where really bad looking. Searched for the two speed switch it took a while but found one on E bay. NOS. All the chrome was gone off the switch. The head light switch was not much better and tested bad. Found them on E bay some wanted a ton of money for one switch. But after much search found my switches. Got each for under a 100 buck's. But where do you find 50 year old switches. These are new and never used or ben reworked. Well that is what happens when restoring these old car's. The list just keep's going.

Russ: I might have my two speed wiper switch, I'll have to look. My tag had the 3-speed code (J25) plus I added the Air Grabber so I had to covert to 3-speed. I'll check when I get back home this afternoon. I don't remember if I had to give it up in trade for the 3-speed switch or not. There was a guy in Wisconsin who rebuilt a 3-speed wiper core I found, and who had all the bits needed. I do remember I had to send him my 2-speed motor as part of the deal. Some of the parts were really difficult to find. I'll see if I still have his contact information.

Thanks RonLiv. I stated that I had found those switches on E bay. they are on the way appreciate the help. Was just letting other's know how hard it is to locate these part's. Was able to get NOS switches and the number's match what I have. Know you wanted to help and do thank you. Russ.

So is that a piece or for both. You know I am getting skinned alive all the time. But the internet is the only out let I have. They are unused. Brand new in the box. Like the back window they will not have any till August. New and they say they have fixed the corners. Wait to see what that will cost me.
