Hi Espen,
it would have been 21 years ago when I first bought the car! but I'm pretty certain when I dismantled the column to fix the slack (plus or minus 5 degrees with no movement at the wheels) I would have noticed a universal joint at the top. Where it meets the dash is quite different from your Deauville pics, and its a very 74 sort of arrangement. For example is the key on yours like this one?

Peter,

That particular key type was employed by Ford US from 1966 thru the late 80's.

I have original Ford key blanks of this type also, if any one is interested in new blanks with proper FORD logos on them. I can also do LINCOLN versions.....just for something completely different!

thanks Steve,
also Ford in Aus about the same duration. I had the same key in an 89 falcon. I think they are probably the most common key in any locksmith. (albeit probably not with the ford logo)

21 years! Wow, you are a real enthusiast.

Here's a picture of my keys. I don't know if they were new with the car. The other set is typical aftermarket.
