Thanks Ray for that part number. I'll look into that as a potential option. I have the wiring harness, but the kickdown switch plug is in poor shape. I would need to replace the plug if I use the GM switch anyways.

Edit: After discussing it with my dad, we are going to go with the Studebaker switch because of the cost of finding a GM switch. It just makes sense to go the cheaper route since I'm not restoring this truck to factory specs. I just want to drive the wheels off of it

One other question Ray: Would you happen to have the part number for the relay you used on your dad's truck? Thanks for all your help on this. I really appreciate it!
