Key problems
1- My ignition key will turn to the "on" and "start" positions with no problem, but it will not turn to the "accessory" position. I have tried powdered graphite, to no avail. Any ideas?
2- I did not get a glove box key with my car. Any idea how I can find the pattern?
Thank you.

Glovebox should be the same as the door key...

Re: Key problems (gary6696)
My '66 Owners Manual says the ignition key is the same as the doors and the other key fits the glovebox and spare tire lock.
I also agree that you sould take your locks or your whole car to a good lock smith. He should be able to make you new keys from GM blanks. He can also rekey your locks and ignition for the same key.
