I want to wire the key up to work in my 80 buggy. Can anyone tell me what the wires off the back of the switch do?

I'm good, but I'm not that good.
How are you starting the truck now?

There's this:
Seems pretty much in sync with Malleus' comment. The starting diagram is missing, thank god. That's where the fun starts, if you still have 24V starter. But since you already have a functional starter I guess, it should be a matter of connecting either ST2 (#2, black/red) or ST1 (#10 black/white) to your starter relay, and AM2 (#3, white/red) or AM1 (#9, black) to the battery. I guess the AM2-ST2 is the one used to power the relay in OEM, because the wires look bigger.

He still needs to power the fuel pump. And the open question about whether the ECM is being used needs to be answered. That's why I asked how he was starting it now. This is a little more complicated than a '67 Chevy C10.

Currently a toggle switch and a push button

OK, but that's just the switch, which isn't really any different than the key switch. My question was more to the wiring than the actual switch.
What happens when you flip the toggle switch? Where does the current come from and where does it go? I assume the pushbutton is in the starter circuit, just like the key switch.
If someone has simply replaced the key switch with the two switches you have, you just need to reroute the wires from those switches. The circuit diagram I gave you will show you what to do. If, on the other hand, someone has gotten creative and bypassed the OEM circuits, and the ECM, you have a more involved puzzle to work out.

Just put this in place of the toggle switch.
