   On my '70 B-GT I had similar problems.  The culprit turned out to
be the ignition switch and jiggling it key does noting to the 'switch'.
I had to take it out and apart, clean everything and reassemble.
It works great now.  Little parts in there though.  Use caution.
Needless to say, disconnect the negative pole of the battery first... :-P
