I have seen pictures for those on e-bay, and it appears that yes they did have them; and they appeared to be mounted on the shift column itself. I have a Ford-o-matic service manual "somewhere" in the garage. I'll see if I can find it, and if I can find anything else about it, I'll get back to you.

There's no link in my post, you need the parts catalog to see the illustration.
Several members of this forum have the catalog on a CD and can scan & post illustrations.
I use the original bound paper catalogs. I cannot scan and post pics.
I just do not have the time nor the expertise to do this.
Looking up, and searching for obsolete parts for FTE members is time consuming enough.
Did'ja notice? I found 18 of the correct original neutral switches at 4 sources.

Thank you, Sir!!
OP: The NSS is on the steering column, not on the trans (it wasn't there till 1978!).
Look at the illustration on the lower left for basic part number: 7A247

Thank you both, it appears that the original, or last owner, remove the switch and all the wires.
Update: The bracket is there on the column I think I just need the switch. Would the same switch work if I have a 12 volt conversion?.

I called ANTIQUE AUTO SUPPLY in Arlington TX and ordered it for $35.00 and its on its way. They said it should be fine for 12v. I don't know if anyone here knows these people but they are very nice. Check out their video of their shop on youtube over 1 million parts YouTube - Antique Auto Supply
Bill thanks again
