Your engine and transmission combo sounds nice. I wish i had that. Looks like a very nice start!!! I like satin black over flat but either way it should look great!!

Switch is 11572 - 10A885 is the spacer between the switch and the backside of the dash - 11584 is the bezel - 11582 is the cylinder w/key.

The cylinder must be removed first .. then the bezel can be removed by pressing on the backside of the spring loaded switch and pushing it forward.

Remove a battery cable for safety...before sticking your mitts behind the dash.

pre 65. I have a 64 just like it. No rag-joint (shaft goes into the gear box). ND will probably say it's 61-64 F100. do NOT take my word for it.
