I will check my part stash to see what parts I may have, the round bezel knob may be the only thing I have extra. The dash pad you can get brand new as it is made by a company called Just Dashes in Van Nuys, CA.
Costs about$600 but it is brand new and will last another 50 years!

Good morning John Q. Merry Christmas. Thank you for your help. I wish I could afford a new dash pad but I must do this wagon on a very tight budget being 71 and on a small income. Since I hope to just make this wagon a nice daily driver I will settle for a dash pad that may also show its age but can still be used. Mine is completely gone, just holes where it was.
I look forward to hearing if you have the ignition switch ring or bezel.
Thanks again.

Dick, just to clarify, do you need the round knurled screw on bezel knob that would attach thru the flat Heater bezel piece as shown in this picture?

Hi, yes that is the one. Would you also have the three plastic insulators and screws for the horn ring and the horn contact and a glove box lock/latch button ?
Thank you so much.

Yes and thanks again. It sure looks like a good deal. I will see if I can do this before our Social security pay day.

Let me know if you still want the ignition switch screw on nut. I dug i t out and it is yours for free if you want it. Just PM me with your address and correct name and I will get it going for you.
As Dick and Matthew have mentioned must of all these parts are available on E bay, If we don't have it we can find the E bay auction that does have it.

PS, I am not sure that this is the original ignition switch as it almost looks like an after market universal. I can send you a picture of it if you want to see what you think.

Thank you so much John Q. I just had new keys made for the wagon and now have the fuel tank out. The tank needs a lot of repair.
