Did you mean push button or key start?

Key start would have been stock but if someone did add a pushbutton, since the 54 ign switches were somewhat "delicate" and 54s used the earlier bezels making the 54 key start ign switch a one year only item I could see a scenario where the switch failed and someone could not find a replacement. If it only has 3 positions an owner might have chosen to install the far more robust and easier to find 49-53 ign switch and resort to a pushbutton for the start function.
