Hi-
The patient is a 1976 that has spent some time sitting and the owner lost the ignition key. Is there a way to make an ignition key from the car's VIN? or is there a way to remove the lock cylinder without wrecking anything so I can have it keyed at a lock shop? Thanks |

Thanks for the replies.
I tried all the keys that the owner has and they for sure don't fit the ignition. I'll see if I can pull the front trunk lock and send it to you Mr Cabinetmaker. The car is a 76. Is that still a tough one to remove? |
