50 F-1 Ignition Switch

I need to replace the ignition switch on my 50 F-1 but can't find one in any of the usual catalogs. Any ideas on what would work as a replacement. Possibly any of the later models?

You could just use a simple 30 amp switch form somewhere like Pepboys or even walmart. Thats what I have used but my truck was a daily driver and I didnt have the time or money to waste on a fancy one. I know that watsons street works has a nice one for around 30 I think

I use a universal switch from NAPA that looks similar to the stock switch, but this way I can wire it so it starts by key like a 'modern' truck or wire so the button starts it.
