WTB 72 Suburban rear A/C dash switch - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**zeusflash** · 10-13-2007, 05:45 PM

I have begun collecting parts to install front and rear A/C in my wifes 72 Suburban. Thanks to this fantastic board most of the parts have been found. The one piece that I am very worried about finding is the dash switch,bezel and knob for the rear A/C. This switch mounts on the left of the dash bezel under the headlight switch and the bezel says"Rear Air". This switch controls the rear blower. So, if anyone has one they would like to sell or knows where to find one please let me know. Thanks in advance!

I thought that I would post a picture of the switch for you so guys would know what you are looking for. WES

Thanks,Wes. But now I am going to have to figure out how to get all of the drool off of my keyboard! That would be the ULTIMATE cluster for the wifes Suburban!!!!!!

Yea that is nice and about as rare as a 67-72 cluster gets.

Problem solved. I got one. You can have it for $10 and I will pay the shipping. If it wasn't for the fact that I have to go through the boxes in the barn to find it, I would have just given it to you. I will put up a pic later.

Hi Mark,
I'll take it!!!!Let me know what the total will be with shipping and what method of payment you prefer and I will forward payment ASAP or sooner! My zip is 83854. I never expect people to give away good parts even though I,like many others,have handed out some freebees just to help out another boardmember. I am grateful to have found this part at such a reasonable cost.(I was worried about finding the switch at all!!!)
Thanks again,
Mike
PS:where did you get the pic of my pickup for your avatar?

Hey,Mark,how's the search for that switch going?(just wondering,not trying to be a pain in the butt!)

**Downtown** · 10-15-2007, 08:44 PM

I found it and only after going through about 10 boxes. The chrome looks bad in the one pic, but it is dirty and should clean up just fine. In case you don't know, the switch just mounts in a plain hole and the black piece on the switch matches the bezel. When mounted it looks like it is part of the bezel. I have sent you a PM on payment if you want it.
Hope this helps
Mark

Hey Mark,I sent you a PM. The switch looks great! By the way,when my wife saw the switch and I told her what I paid she said I was a cheap "......."! You fill in the blank!

Anyway,thank you very much.

**Downtown** · 10-16-2007, 06:47 PM

Mike

**zeusflash** · 10-16-2007, 07:09 PM

Sounds good. Thanks again Mark!

**Classic Heartbeat** · 10-16-2007, 07:49 PM

Thank you PT'S 70 CST, I am happy you approve. You restore some great parts. Matter of fact the speed warning knob is one of the NOS ones that you were selling a while back..lol
By the way zeusflash, did you get your keyboard cleaned? lol This is the dash that is going into my 67 Panel Project.. WES

**zeusflash** · 10-16-2007, 10:48 PM

Yeah,Wes,I got it cleaned. the only problem is I can't stop goin back to look at that dash again and then I have to do it over!
