Alfa Romeo Repair: 77 Alfa Romeo Spider Ignition Switch, alfa romeo spider, alfa romeo

Question
I have above car and the ignition switch is "locked up".  I have not been able to find a replacement.  Internation-Auto does not have a vendor anymore and is looking for another according to their phone representative.

Where do I go from here.  The car is undriveable not being able to start it.

Answer
I presume you mean the steering column keyed lock. The swithc bolts onto the end of the locking mechanism. If it is the lock then drill it out until  you come to the tang at the bottom. If it really is the switch then cut the wires and attach themn to a couple of switches, a momentary for the starter.
