Veteran Posts: 133 | Here is the information I just back from Anthony. Go to the link below to see the quality of his work. He has been a machinist for Raytheon for almost 40 years and it shows. Randy, I can rebuild the 59 models. I dont know what the 57-58 looks like. If they look anything like the 59's wre good to go. Do you have any pictures of a 57-58 switch? All the info you need is below. Thanks, Anthony Please confirm that you received this e-mail. Note new e-mail address aepowell3@verizon.net Below is a canned letter that I send to everyone showing my service and what the charges are. So far I have been able to get the switches back in the mail the day after I receive them. If your car is and air car be sure to check your temp selector switch located on the right side o the plenum (picture #3). The average cost to rebuild the switch is usually about 45.00 plus 5.00 for shipping. It just depends on how much work needs to be done. If your buttons are a little hard to push it usually needs at least 2 of the wafer boards. If your really lucky you can get off with just the vacuum port repair. I would need you to send me your switch or switches. There is some machine work that I have to do no the switch. I can fix several problems that happen to most of these switches. The cost just depends on what is broken on your switch. I can fix AC/Heat or Heat only switches. I have rebuilt switches for people all over the United States. Rick Eburg did an article on my repairs in the March 2006 edition of Mopar Action. Picture #1 is a before and after shot of the vacuum control switch. It will work on any push button mopar switch from 1959 to 1988. Picture #2 is a before and after shot of the push button repair. Picture #3 is a before and after shot of the Temperature selector switch for 62-65 b body air conditioned cars. Picture #4 is a before and after shot of the max cool vacuum switch that piggy backs on the fan switch on the 62-65 B body air cars. Picture #5 is a before and after shot of the sliding wafer boards that go inside the switch. I have been using a repaired switch in my car for over two years now and it works great. The port and button repair is made out of black or white delrin material. It is super tough. The other two switches are made of alum. They will all outlast the cars they are going in. The wafer boards are made out of a super tough plastic shim stock. The vacuum port repair is 35.00, button repair 5.00 each,and wafer boards are 5.00 each. The temp selector switch is 40.00 as is the piggy back max cool switch. Just send a money order for the services that you think you need. I won't know if you have any bad boards in the switch until I open it up. If there are bad boards you can send payment for them when you get your switch back. I can be reached at aepowell3@verizon.net or (903)-893-5674. I thank you very much for this chance to show my product. P.S. Please send switches only. No metal parts.

Member Posts: 6 Location: Sherman,Texas | Hello everybody. I'm aepowell and I'm the one that rebuilds the pushbutton switches for our mopars. Can someone post a picture of a 57-58 switch? I think the only difference between them and the latter models are the pushbuttons, but i could be wrong. I am 99.9 percent sure the parts that I build are the same. Thanks, Anthony | ||
