Every day I find something cool January 28, 2007, 09:31:47 PM When I bought my 86TC I received 4 sets of keys. Today I noticed that they had always carried a set of the copy keys in thier pockets. The 2 oem sets that say turbo on them are in mint condition and look to be hardly used.How cool is that? Quote Selected
Every day I find something cool Reply #1 – January 29, 2007, 02:58:24 AM Never knew TC keys said turbo on them.. I find that to be cooler actually haha. But seriously, when I sold my bird, I forgot to give the kid the other set, which was actually rarely ever used, and are in near perfect condition. I kinda consider them my memento of the car.

Every day I find something cool Reply #4 – January 30, 2007, 08:52:28 PM Here are some uncut keys I found on eBay. One of them is a remake, but the other is an original from the '80s that was never cut. I think it's the trunk key that is original.The keys that came with my '86 XR-7 are identical to these.

I think it's the trunk key that is original.The keys that came with my '86 XR-7 are identical to these.The original's were a made of a semi-hard rubber material and the aftermarket keys are a hard plastic material. I still have my orginal keys, but they aren't as soft as they were years ago.A few years ago, I ordered a new ignition lock set from Ford and it came with the correct original rubber material keys. I know that the '85-'88 cars came with these keys, but does anyone know if the '83-'84 cars did?I asked a friend of mine who bought an '84 TC new and he doesn't remember them being any different than a regular Ford key.Brent Quote Selected
