Default 65 Igniotion Switch

Is it me or is it hard to find an ignition switch for a 65?

I've looked everywhere and the corvette parts dealers have them for all C2 years except 65.

I even google search it and the part that comes up is from standard parts is wrong. It does match the lock cylinder.

Does anyone have a source for these?

Thanks!

The 65 electrical part is out of production...your best bet is to get a 66 or 67 one and rewire it to fit..


I just did a search and found this 65 on ebay..you better hurry and buy it now

What makes the '65 switch unique?

If you haven't checked ebay you might give it a try. I purchased one there a year or so ago.
