That's what I do or park behind a car and aim at it, RIGHT IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR!
Sure it was easy, I had 40 employees, Send a few to get the stuff back to the store, have a few in each store changing over part numbers , if necessary, put it on the shelves, and enjoy the profit, And the stuff that was old or obsolete, I sent back to my regular WD's for full credit...No Brainer...You make it sound easy! Buy low, sell high.
Tying up money and space, knowing where it is, etc..
Well maybe help me. The set for my 67 is a mess. Someone changed something. Door key, trunk and ignition are all different, and slightly diffrerent keys in each set.I Ignore Keith after 6 pm!
Missed that one that's a book mark. Figures have keys coming and ace will cut them for me free!
Thanks Mitch. Do you want to post or email a picture of the blanks? maybe its obvious? Im sure we can figure out a cross ref on the square ones. Taylor P1098AMatt, On those AMC keys The round ones are all the same, here, Curtis #RA3, The square ones I have are 2 different numbers Curtis #RA4 and RA5
I had my neighbor/locksmith re-pin some cylinders, so I could use the same key....Well maybe help me. The set for my 67 is a mess. Someone changed something. Door key, trunk and ignition are all different, and slightly diffrerent keys in each set.
Stop on in for a cup of coffee

Looks like the ones on the bottom have a much wider land between the grooves?
Interesting. IIRC the III supposedly adjusts dwell for rpm and maybe even self compensates for slew rate.Matt you will appreciate this one.
Will be getting a petronix III in it he has.

He is running a Fitech on it, really weird curve all mech, hits 14 @2k then 34 all in @4900. That was really interesting to make work. See how it is locked out? Pic is bad but a screw in the vac advance arm hole into the main plate drilled and tapped. He should be happy with it. I never did anything even close to that before.Interesting.

Craig does, not cheap.anyone know of a place that can restore a regular steering wheel? the polara's is cracked and missing pieces but the stainless center is in great shape and I'd like to keep it.

A very important piece though.Who would of thought there was so much to get a key made properly!
I was looking at Mikes but he does mostly Corvette stuff. Eastwood has kits. If it's a regular wheel there are pretty easy from what I understand.anyone know of a place that can restore a regular steering wheel? the polara's is cracked and missing pieces but the stainless center is in great shape and I'd like to keep it.
The cuda has a crack right where the sun hit it if the kit is reasonable I would try it if I cant find a good price on a wheel.I was looking at Mikes but he does mostly Corvette stuff. Eastwood has kits.
I figured he would have some answers. Dude is like the Mopar Keymaster. LOLHere: Stop on in for a cup of coffee
Figuring out which key blank will work turns out to be a little complicated.
Probably worth talking to him and tell him whether you need to be original looking or just functional.
He took this and made it look like new. It was cracked and discolored. $350-$400Craig does, not cheap.
There in lies the problem. It got to the point at my store, that I had to do them , because, the employees could never get the original key , and the blank, set up right in the machine. Always had wrong cut keys. I finally took the machine out of the front of the store. Todays key machines are (mostly) Idiot proof..Who would of thought there was so much to get a key made properly!
