Default Re: Out driving. Shut off car. Dead. What is this?

I had a 1972 Chevelle that did this.I found out it was the Ignition switch rod out of Alignment with the igntion switch itself, on the Steering shaft.
I dropped the steering column in the interior,& saw the rod not engaging into the switch properly.
I had to tighten the two little 11/16 inch screws,and it stayed true and worked proper after that.It couldn't have been more then 1/4 inch out of alignment.
