Re: IML: I just bought another lost puppy home

Tom,
Good luck with your new car. My 56 I just started on was the same way. No 
keys!!!! I went to a good old Car parts store and bought a key cylinder from 
them and just changed that part of it. It came with keys. Just a thought 
since you will get a different key anyway. Cost me about $11.00 and did it 
my self. I still need a whole lock for the trunk since some one pried the 
whole thing out.

Good luck
Tim
