There were kits to convert these from Keys new H-700 keys. It could be changed with the aid of a paperclip.
My CCKW has a Delco Key switch to keep the curious honest.
The Repro switches do not have this luxury.

If you move the ignition switch hot lead to the head light switch position SW or SS (sorry I don't have a manual in front of me right now), when the headlight switch is all the way in (all off) you cannot start the truck.
That switch position puts power to the stoplight switch only in all postions except all off (push-pull all the way in or rotary straight up and down
