I found the correct key for the ignition switch. I guess the others are to the rumble seat and spare tire locks.

Anyway, when the ign switch is operated, it pops out, which was a novel surprise.

Does "out" means the ignition is "on"? Is that all there is in in and out? Or does the key have to be rotated after it is out?

Any info appreciated. I don't want to trying to start the car with the ignition off, if some other operation is required.

Thanks,
Doug

Out is "on" and in with a turn locks it off.

Turn the key clockwise to popout and on. Push in and turn counterclockwise to turn off.

How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!
