Ignition switch looks original, off - on, no unlock position.
Currently has a starter button in one of the radio knob holes. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 1,038 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 1,038 | Yes, there was a stomp starter. In the driver's seat, you are sitting much more forward in relation to the engine, compared to a standard cab. Thus, the stomp starter is just forward of the seat base, more or less straight down from your right knee. There will be a reinforced hole in the left floor panel. As you would imagine, the linkage is different than for a standard cab.
