Has anyone ever seen a set of original blanks for 1960-1963 (Maybe later) Imperial keys with the crown on them?

I did. No luck. He has the cheezy plastic ones that are new. Dont like those. I have the original trunk key, it looks so cool. Would love a matching set!

When I owned the Rockefeller '60 Imperial Ghia limo, the trunk key was the gold original. Didn't take a pic - thought it was aftermarket! Now I know. Hank Hallowell is the new owner.

I don't need the trunk lock assembly, as then the glovebox would not be the same key....

I have the original trunk/glove box key for my 59 with the crown on it. The original ignition key with the crown has long since disappeared. I heard these keys broke easily.
