Michael, 
  I think that all pickups, travelalls, and wagonmasters PRIOR to 1974 had
the ignition switch in the dash, next to the cigarette lighter and fuel
tank switch (if equipped with two tanks).  I think your switch is the
same as what a Scout II has, and I think it is a common GM
ignition switch.  Someone else might have a part number to post.
You could try asking for a switch for a Scout II, or maybe a Chevy Pickup
of the same vintage (~74) and compare yours to what they bring out.

With the switch in the dash (I guess I know where I can get one now, eh?)
