who has trunk lock tumbler SX88?

I have a key for you!

[Mike Self]

Close (SX82) but no cigar.  Suspect it's from an early car, as later ones have a 3 digit key code.

Pretty sure it's from my old '73 tii. 2764xxx ?

I’ll have to check my 73... pretty sure it’s missing the key

my keys do not have a code.  Does that mean they are copies?

IMO yep!

[visionaut]

rats...  Both of my 76's keys - trunk/ignition are that brand.  Given their patina, I chanced a thought they might original.  The ignition one has the Roundel on one side.  But alas no codeness. So copies me.

SX36 for me.

 

I have B569 & B543 ('76s) if anyone has.

Unknown number of previous owners... But apparently an original trunk key...

Maybe, but maybe the car came with one set with codes and the other set without?  @jimk Do you remember?

[Son of Marty]

My original owner 74 came with 2 sets of keys all with numbers and a valet ignition key with no number FWIW

[jimk]

Both of my masters are marked, SX55.  My daily driver is a copy and has no marks.

I'm going with the patina...
