Original key blanks



Here's a original set of uncut Cord key blanks. I'm debating at this point on whether to have them keyed to FB2191 or leave them as is.

Josh Malks, a ACD member, author, and historian of the marque, wrote to let me know that this set is actually for an L29.  810/812 keys would have the Auburn logo on the reverse rather than the Cord name.  

Here's a question -- Joe Leahy, a member of the club and the editor of the junior member newsletter, suggested that I approach Yale and have them stamp a new set of these blanks -- most owners I know don't have the original set of keys, so would you pay for a blank set that you could then key to your car?

Good idea, Scott. I'd buy a reasonably priced set. Could get some PR for them in the ACD Club Newsletter's "Parts Bin" column too. Be aware that the keys you show are for the L-29. 810/812 keys show "Yale Junior" on one side and the Auburn logo on the other.

Thanks Josh - I've updated the post.

I gave you ORIGINAL BLANKS? What was I thinking?

Keep up the good work on the Custom Beverly. Will see you soon at the ACD Texas Meet (in Okla City!)
