Sorry if my post was confusing. It is a '57. It currently has a foot/stomp starter. It needs to be converted to a key activated starter.
There is a foot pressure activated switch on the starter.
I would 'assume' that I need a solenoid type starter to replace the pressure switch starter.
Am I incorrect in this?
And if indeed I need a solenoid type starter, suggestions as to which vehicle application I can get it from?
Thanks again!
FWIW, this truck is not intended to be an original type restoration. It is intended to be as reliable, safe, and fun as possible for a 67 y.o. truck.
