Ignition switch replacement - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Finally got the '69 up and running after many years of it sitting around. Comes to find out my ignition switch has intermittent contact problems and is causing issues. Any places out there you could recommend where I can purchase a new switch that is going to be reliable?

Also looking for a headlight switch and a dimmer switch - same intermittent contact issues.

Truck sat in a humid environment for a few years and corrosion built in before I moved it out to SE Arizona.

Thanks in advance.

I would try NAPA if you have one close, or online at http://www.rockauto.com

Rockauto usually has ACdelco at reasonable prices.
