When I grew up almost A:: cars had a start button...ON THE FLOOR! I installed a start button in almost all vehicles I’ve had since my new 1967 Mustang. Even the minivans mrs p6 and I had in the 80’s - 90’s had them.
I tried putting one in our 1998 Durango but didn’t realize the new...I say stupid...anti theft stuff realized the system had been tampered with and I had to take the truck to the dealer to have the entire system reset!
I think I’ll build my own dang car!I
For years we used a Chevy stepside on the farm.
Key in the dashboard and starter button on the floor.
Add on electric heater bolted under the dash.
If I recall, you could start that particular truck without the key, but needed the key to use the lights.
My mechanic has an old Chevy stepside sitting in back of his shop.
Still has the original wooden floor in the bed.
If he doesn’t want too much for it, I might buy it.
My son and I could have fun putting an engine in it.
