The octagonal-end key operates the ignition switch
and the front doors of your Corvair.
The round-end key operates the glove box and lug
gage compartment. The optional spare tire lock requires
its
own key.
Each key has a
serial number stamped on a remov
able plug. This number will provide necessary informa
tion to enable you to have another key made in the
event
that the original is lost.
To avoid the possibility that unauthorized persons
might duplicate your key, it is strongly recommended that
you record the serial number and then, with a hammer
and punch, remove the knockout plug.
