[Healeys] FS series keys -- what are the odds?

[Max Byers]

Phase 1 BJ8s used FP series keys, Phase 2 used FS series.
A survey of the BJ8 registry for 9,475 cars shows 77 different FS keys were used from FS.833 to FS.979.

This reminds me of when I was in high school and I discovered that the key to my '55 Chevy would start my grandpa's '57 just fine.

Our friends with a '66 MGB they bought new lost their last ignition key.  Just on a lark,  I suggested trying the keys from my '66 BJ8, and one of them worked.

How many different FS series keys were made?

My guess? Two.
