Today I got a chance to take some pictures of a customers 1955 2nd truck. Unfortunately the switch mount is not stock but the rest looks like it is. I hope this helps someone trying to set one up.

I wonder if the switch is stock or if the switch and bracket came off another make. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 4,961 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 4,961 | Look familiar. Its from a 60's Ford. It was an improved version of what the Y-Blocks used.

It doesn't give the bracket dimensions however. Fred
