You need to turn the ignition over to see if your item is for a diesel.

When the ignition freezes up it is usually the piece in the rear of the housing that connects to the electrical portion of the switch. A person really needs to remove the dash.. about 20-30 minutes and then do not grind the little pin off but use a small grinder with a .032 wafer blade and cut the ignition shaft off close to where it goes into the steering housing tube... This will release the tension on the pin and the remainder will pull right out of the tube. I have done this, outside, at 7 below zero.. Bought the car for 7 hundred dollars.

I do have the parts you need with a key but I do not have the door handles etc. You would need to continue using your keys as part of a set for your doors and trunk..

Your dash is easy to repait.. maybe a little messy but I rebuild dashes so they look brand new...

If you are interested in the steering columm and the ignition assembly just send me a email and I can send you some pictures.. jimh16671836@yahoo.com
