Went over to my friends place today with the hope of finishing up my disc brake swap and installing a new ignition switch. Got close, but not quite there with both jobs.
The NAPA ignition switch has a different type of threaded rod on the back, and came without a nut. And the old switch has a finer thread on the rod on it, so I need to hit the coffee can and find something that will work.
After a little trouble, finally got the brake swap wrapped up, except for bleeding them and checking for leaks.
Now if I could just find a decent hood in my area.....

Wow, you found an ignition switch at NAPA?? Every time I go in there for any parts for my '62, they look at me like I'm from Mars!!
