If you have the ignition switch but no keys... the lock can be re-keyed by a locksmith as can all the other locks on the car.

The truck is accessible by removing the rear seat back cushion. Once the cushion is removed, remove the cardboard divider which allows access to the trunk.

CAUTION:

If there have been rodents in the car I would advise the use of a sealed breathing mask when in areas where the rodents have been until you have thoroughly cleaned the car. Residual dust in the car will be laced with dried urine and feces from previous and current rats and mice nests. This dust can contain a virus to which is transmittable to humans via inhaling of the dust.

John, John, John- How may times do we need to remind you? Don't be saying stuff like that on a public board, or they'll revoke your parole!!!:eek:



BTW, did you go to the National in Spokane? A car that looked very much like yours was there, but the owner never filled out the card, so don't know who it was.

Mike,



I didn't make it to the National this year, I wish I had though. BTW, I am no longer on parole!

I don't know about 52s, but on my 51 I removed the set screw holding the lock set in from the bottom of the trunk trim, pulled the lock set out and used a long 1/4inch socket extension to unlock the trunk. No problem (except I lost the set screw and have to hold the lockset in with duct tape 'til I get another).
