original ignition switch
 

I bought an original about a year ago. The ignition switch (on/off) was a push/pull instead of a key. I have finally decided to change it to a key, like it is supposed to be. The switch I pulled off looks like a headlight switch. On the front of the switch, it says out-run on the top, and in-stop on the bottom. was this original to the CCO instead of having a key switch, or is this a headlight switch (mine does not have the headlight option). Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Not original...the CCO has a keyed on/off switch like the 70/100.

thanks matt, thats what i thought. just confused me when i pulled the switch out and it was stamped IH.

If that is an old headlight switch, then it could fetch some decent $$$ with the labels still intact on it!

it has a couple of part #'s on it. first-8540-da, next is t-2-ih(international harvester symbol) thanks for the help, and interest in this.:American Flag 1:

good to know, i am not having any luck finding the switch locally. thanks

I have 2 or 3 "new" keyed switches for the original but I haven't had time to even put one of them on my own tractor, let alone to find them in my pile of parts that I have tossed to the side. I think mine are for the later model originals....not for sure.:Huh:

my original is an early serial #( 4 digit). if it will work, how much do you want for it shipped to nc.

gazoriginal....

It is @ my other house, about 40 mi. away. Let me get to it, take a picture and send you the picture to see if it will work first. Just pm me to help me remember to do that.......Things are kind of hectic in my world right now!!
