Default 40 year old keys

About two months ago i had some new keys made for vette, cleaning off my desk and found the old keys again. This December they will be 41 years old, they look tired.

Cant throw them away, so into the keepsake pile they go.

With the close up pictures, I believe I could make a duplicate set. Now, if I knew where you kept the Vette.

When I had a 3rd spare set made for my '71 in 1976, the guy at the Chevy parts dept. did it by just looking at my keys.
