The wiring on this one will have to change a bit to prevent trying to find an obsolete ignition switch in the future. I will be changing it over to more common easy to find parts that we will always stock. The newer solenoid system, and the newer Indak switch and pigtail for the magnums to kill the electronic ignition that was put on it at some point. It may seem confusing but it's not. :tounge2

Test fitting, marking, welding the nuts inside the shroud, and painting the inside of the shroud is already done. I'm still wondering when I will stop making the things no one sees look as good as the things people do see, no stopping the OCD lol. :rolling

Those look great Gene. As I sit here on the beach in Maui, your work looks even more impressive!
