Is it the one that clamps on the side of the steering column and you pull the clip out below the lever for hazards? I had one of those then I bought a whole switch and rewired the column and found a turn signal lever. You can find all new parts here... http://www.dennis-carpenter.com/pdf/57-66Truck07.pdf to make it as painless as possible. If you look at this link I think you have this one. Yes it has a wiring chart with it as well. Rick's Automotive Hardware Store Universal Turn Signal Switch - Chrome plated metal Turn & Stop Signal switch

That looks pretty much what I thought it would. All except the road warrior theme you have going on in there LOL Your steering wheel isn't stock so that will add some interesting aspects to going back to a stock switch. If you look at the wire colors peeking out of the electrical tape they match with the ones in the link I posted a few minutes ago. It may come down to replacing your old one with a newer one to solve the turn signal issue. The power to that switch should be coming from the fuse block under the headlight switch to the blinker then on to the main power feed to your aftermarket switch FOR THE TURN SIGNALS. The brake lights still go through the pressure switch on the master cylinder and tie into it via the red wire. Enlarge the wiring schematic on the aftermarket switch link I posted.

Oh trust me that is why I said it doesn't feel the same and its not the best. I had to get that fixed after a fix it ticket was handed to me...
EDIT: Check out page 57 of the online Dennis Carpenter catalog. They sell a new C0DZ-13341-A 61-62 switch for $40 and the C9TZ-13341-C for $25. Looks like I will be buying a new one sooner then I thought. Last time I saw them they were $70 just like the 56-60 one.

Dealer NET is $37.19, so if he's paying that price, 'Ol Dennis is losing 12 dollars and 19 cents on each and every one a them.
What a kind soul, ppl oughtta say a prayer for him.
The real reason: The price in his catalog is old and outta date. Call and see what the real price is!
btw: Just because Dennis Carpenter says he has the original tooling, don't think for a minute that all a that tooling is being used by him here in the US of A.
In one a those pics in his catalog showing one of the tooling machines being used...the ppl in the background appear to be Asians.
Now I ain't sayin' that Asians don't live here, but.....
I know he offshores some of the tooling which means some of the stuff is made in China, Taiwan and lord knows where else!

Last I heard Ford was getting a huge slice just for the use of the tooling, then a nice cut on each item sold.
I suspect storage on all that old machinery is pretty steep too. Sigh.
