Story isn't straight. First no keys, then ign key is thin and bends?

You can get a "universal" ignition switch that comes with keys, if you just want to fire it up or check things out, temporarily. I recall the P ignition switches were a bit hard to come by. But the lock set is common. Mine was missing completely, but I had keys?
I suspect with the virus, etc. locksmiths aren't as happy to come to you as in the past, so you may have to take the parts out and take to them or send out. If you don't find anyone locally,
www.jessers.com can make keys, rekey, or repair the ignition cylinder or door lock cylinders. He's done work for me. He's located in Akron OH.
