[Healeys] keys

Hi all
I think you are trying too hard. The various locks are only identified by
the key numbers not where somebody at Longbridge or Abingdon chose to fit
one or the other. All numbers could have all different figurations of
"handles",
Be happy keep driving, or if the snow has come restore something that might
just be worn.

Best regards
Sven
Sweden
BJ8 and about a dozen other BMC cars

FWIW, my BJ8 ignition key is 6-sided, my trunk/glovebox key is rectangular.
