My friendly local locksmith put at least two hours into it, and after
several broken key blanks and a phone call or two to his brother,
concluded that the American Motors key blank 'cut back on the shank
for deeper reach' fit more locks than the later ('70's?) looking key
(#P1270U) he used for the first crack at the ignition solution.
He'll be back tomorrow afternoon, with the g love box latch in hand,
hopefully with a tailgate, door, ignition solution all in harmony!

Except DeSoto - in 1957-58 DeSoto still used key start.
Doors and ignition are the same on Mopar products, while glove box,
trunk/tailgaate are the same.

I've got a gent working on it right now, after breaking off one key,
he has another that turns the lock now, but he discovered that we had
no 'start' position- I have forgotten this from the HS days (late
60's) when I owned a '57 Fury, do all PB cars use the N Button for
start? And, it seems the door locks are the same blanks as the trunk
and 'love box' ;-)?
Gotta go back out and watch-

PS- I don't see 'the pin' hole like my F*RD ignitions have?
