In my car, I have the modern switch and it is wired like a modern car. I have an accessory position which allows me to work on things like the windshield wiper or to program the GPS without having the ignition on. I should note that I have added a distribution block with fuses for the various things, like a modern car. It is mounted with magnets so no new holes were added to the firewall.
I have pretty much the same thing with one addition: my ignition switch also has a "start" position as well. My distribution block is mounted with Velcro.
