There are a couple of the correct 70-71 switches on e-bay. Good luck, Mike


I think that's the ticket! I believe I have all of the mechanical parts together, but I will need the variable switch to make it work right. I will just have to pony up for the right switch!

So with the variable switch, were you still able to use the 2-speed wiring harness and plugs?

Thanks!
