I noticed it on the new Viper engined Dodge Ram and liked the idea.

yeah it is the orininal switch under the dash, i bought a relay so i would run all the starting juice through the button, then i cut the wire that runs to the starter (purple if i remember) so that the original couldnt start it and it was simple. the 4 wires were IIRC a switched power, a wire to the botton, a ground and to starter. i think the button was 38 bucks, but that was with my moms discount. the hardest thing was finding something that would plug onto the switch and finding which prongs i needed to hook to (it doesnt come with a diagram) radio shack had some stuff for plugs.

Thanks for the write up/pics...will be useful. I had a the same clearance problem with the turn signal on a plain-old Grant wheel. Pretty stock truck, don't think the lever was tweaked previously.

SSOW

that car needs some help bad!!! i love that thing but my parents cant afford to do what they want to it so they havent done anything to it it has a 400 with a M22 and a rock crusher rear end (dont know much about rear ends but have heard those are d@mn good) we have factory front disc brakes for it in the cabnets. but the PO (my bio-dad) was a %$#@%#@$% (but thats a whole nother board in its self) had the trunk sand blasted and didnt clean out the rocker panels so sand soaks up water and....well this car doesnt have rockers anymore, or floor boards for that matter. motor was rebuilt 7 years ago, but has since sat there cause my step dad (my real dad) is kinda lazy and hasnt done a valve adjustment so he can start it again after he had the rad re cored and a new water pump added.
o its a 67 if you couldnt tell
