Gbeeler's Knob key in a 62 Galaxie

Now that my car has glass again I am hiving a lot of fun working on extra touches. This little mod was simply too cool to not make one. I plan on keeping it the ash tray and using it during car shows and when showing off for friends. Even with the ignition switch being below the row of knobs I think it looks like Ford put it there. Thanks Gbeeler for sharing this cool find!!!

I am picking up another 62 for parts this Friday. I am definitely using one of the knobs for this mod.

Re: Gbeeler's Knob key in a 62 Galaxie

I think I started a trend. Looks good with the black knob too.

They do look pretty cool. I forgot how the keys used to be on the left side of the column. I had 1960 Falcon in high school and the key was on the left if I remember right.

I do the same which is why I said I'd never be able to find the key hole anyway. lol
You are now a trend setter or fad starter or something like that.

I've been called a lot of things in my 39 years, but never one of those two things.
