Recently had key/lock problems on my newly purchased 40 Standard Tudor. Had to hold mouth just so and tilt key while jiggling to operate ignition, and still would not work in the door. Trunk lock cylinder was drilled out and key would not work in glove box.
Found FlatHeadCoupe on this site and he was able to code cut new keys and replace the missing parts in trunk handle locking mechanism and match locks so that I now have a set of properly working keys that are matched to their separate locks as originally when new at a very reasonable cost. I now have 2 keys that work perfectly. THANKS John.
