The key in the picture is genuine for the pre '65 models - It can either be ASSA or LM Ericsson
BTW - Todays reproduction of ign. key/lock barrel is a strange mix of the new barrel style and the old key style - I don't get why they did it like that..
Me thinks your 4door got a face lift in the 1991 operation..  |
In believe the rationale was that the ASSA design of key is inherently stronger than the Neiman but the vast majority of cars had Neiman barrels so it doesn't alter the look of the car.
