<p>Hi Vern,</p>
<p>It also seems possible that Bob's 1970/71 car would take the same
steering lock and ignition assembly as the contemporary Federal
3500S with the same style gauges and dash. The part number for
that assembly is 570177. This type takes a double sided key, i.e.
cut on both sides, and the blank has one slot down one side and
two slots down the other side.<br>
</p>
<p>Here is one on ebay for reference (apparently also missing a
key): <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/224756391601">https://www.ebay.com/itm/224756391601</a></p>
<p>It may or may not be easier to remove the whole upper steering
column and the column lock as an assembly (a la the ebay ad)
rather than trying to remove the shear bolts.</p>
<p>Steve</p>

Hi All
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I’ve got Bob fixed up so he should be getting the
rovernet again, and here’s the update. It’s confirmed that he
has locking steering.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">So the long story is he needs: key blanks or a used
column lock with keys or (dreaming) a new assembly. Part number
in 1974 was 620179, 2200 used the same appearing assembly but
with part number 620264.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The lock should use a single sided key as far as a
blank goes. A company called Clark & Clark in Michigan makes
blanks for the correct era of BL cars, but that doesn't mean
they make the right one for Bob’s early A suffix car.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Even better would be the body shop finding the key,
I’ve still got my fingers crossed for Bob on that.</div>
