Hey who knows where I can get a brake light switch for a 50 Chevy pick-up. Opps wrong forum.
My Brake lights quit working for me tonight on the way home from changing the oil in my airplane.

If you can't find it locally try these folks

Several of us got our shiny new door handles from them.

4583C can you elucidate a little more about which escutcheon you bought from Chevies of the 40s?

The escutcheon part# I have is 4073966 37-38. They haven't left the cabinet over my desk yet so the number was easy to find. The escutcheon seems to fit too tight on the door handle... probably needs a visit from the dremel tool before installation.
