About how much is a NICE original one worth, with an original working key?

Mr. Crabtree restored a popout switch and cable for me earlier this year. Top notch work! It looks brand-new and functions beautifully. Quick turnaround time, too, if you are in a time crunch to get the switch back. (In the middle of winter, how much of a time crunch could there be???

Marshall - it may be miserable in Iowa, but driving 12 months of the year is one thing (perhaps one of few) that the lower left coast has going for it! Would have driven on a club drive today except no windshield for a few days while I replace the rubber seals...Mr. Crabtree restored a popout switch and cable for me earlier this year.

'Sorry for my myopic view of driving conditions in the winter. We are presently dealing with record snowfall here in southeastern Iowa since Wednesday night, which is affecting my perception of the rest of the USA. Plus, more snow is projected for tomorrow and Monday. Popout switch usage hereabouts will drop drastically in proportion to the number of inches we get. Enjoy your popout switches and sunshine out on the Left Coast. We have forgotten what the sun looks like around here.

P.S. Iowa weather sucks scissors!!!!

Besides condition and functionality, the price of a good popout switch and cable would probably be affected by which year they fit. Early 1928 "banana" cables must be more valuable than the later more common ones. Look in the "Judging Standards". There are different cable tips and lengths shown. Be careful which switch and cable you buy for YOUR car. The armored cable might be either too long or too short. Check the "JS" for the correct length to match your Model A's year (and maybe month?).
