It appears the same switch was used 53-57, at leasp per the '60 parts book, P/N 3141442, Group *.852. What is wrong with yours?

Bill, I was hoping the switch may have been used in some older other type vicicle truck ect. cause as you know mention word (corvette) and price goes way up ,my switch works fine as far as low, high and off but the knob that pulls in/ out for defrost has come loose on the back side of switch so I can't make the cable work thanks

The switch you seek is a Corvette-only item; it was not used on any other applications that I can find. It definitely was not used on any other Chevrolet applications.

It may be possible to replace just the wire in the cable sheath perform a new attachment to your cable and get you back in business. I believe such services are advertised in the "services" section of "Hemmings" or possiby in the "Driveline"
