Mark Gregory Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 (edited) I have a 1931 Reo Royale Victoria 8 - 31 . The ignition switch is missing I looked at Mac's Ford and found a few but the switch FACE does not look the original . Does anyone know sources for a ignition switch where I can buy one .

Spinneyhill Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 (edited) The bezel looks like you might be able to make it with the rubber forming technique. I had a thread about it in Technical a while ago. Get the shape turned up in a block of metal (aluminium?) and then press your brass into it. Then replace the Ford repro bezel with the one you made. Does that switch key slot have "wings" up each side of the key? Edited March 6, 2018 by Spinneyhill (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Gregory Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 That's a very good idea. I never would of thought of that approach at all . That is not my dash it is a fellow Royale owners in Flint who sent me a picture of it . Thanks Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
