1968 Key Style

["Brian Collinsworth" <67imperial@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I see the 67,68 style key blanks on ebay every so often. The square key was
used in 67 and 68 only. 69 and up was the pentastar keys. I found some at a
local locksmith after all the hardware stores just looked at me funny.

A little off topic, the ignition switches for 69 were one year only part. In
70 they were in the column.
