[T3] Ignition switch '67 squareback.

I purchased two ignition switches from ISP for my '67 Fastback.  The first one lasted about one year and the second one has been in the car for about a year and is working fine.  I'm sure they told you that the switch dosn't have a steering column lock.  I didn't think that was an important feature.  Replacing it is kind of a pain since the switch is hard-wired.  I simply made a diagram of how the wires were connected.  Some minor soldering is required. When you loosen the two bolts holding the steering column, you can rotate the column counter clock wise to better see and remove the soldered wires.
