Basically I'm in the process of installing a flame thrower exhaust but for safety reasons I don't want anyone to be able to play around with it so I wanted an ON/OFF switch with a key lock. Does anyone know where I can find one? I know without one I'm liable to have someone get hurt or get in trouble, such as my dad who seems to like to borrow my car and play with the toys in it or for some reason any time the car goes to a garage I find people have been tinkering with stuff so I consider this to be VERY important. lol Even if someone knows a company that makes them so I can look them up that'd be great. Thanks in advance!

You do realize that in just about every state a flame thrower exhaust is illegal right? And can't really use it at a car show as you might set the grass or another car or people around on fire.

If you want the cool factor, go for a 1960 or so Chevy ignition switch. Various years had them, I know from 1959 or so until 1964. This allowed the key to be left out so you could lock the car or open the trunk with it running.

You'd have to look at places like The Paddock, Sinclairs Chevy Parts, Year One or Danchuck off the top of my head. Now I think of it, anything from '55-'64 will be fine. You need the switch with the keys and dash bezel. The dash might require a funky cutout to keep the switch from rotating.
