I purchased a 1966 Lincoln Continental without keys. It was fairly easy to drop the lower panel under the steering wheel to access the ignition switch and cylinder. Since I didn't have keys, I went ahead and ordered a switch along with the cylinder and replaced both at the same time. It would have been nice to have the original set of Lincoln keys, but this got me going again and my car isn't a super high dollar restoration. It took a little bit of finesse to get the cylinder to click into the switch. All in all, I'm back in business and have keys that will work with my vehicle.

My original Ford cylinder finally gave up the ghost, so it was time to replace it. I have a couple of other Standard Motor items on my car that have been extremely reliable, so I chose this one. It comes with instructions, but if you haven't had to do it before they're not extremely clear. There's a youtube video from CJ Pony parts that helps, so I'd suggest watching if you find the written ones a little murky. My hint is this: when you remove your old cylinder, set it aside in the exact orientation in which it came out of the switch. Then set your replacement to match it. Insert the replacement and rotate the key clockwise.

This Lock Cylinder is like a Chinese puzzle. Once you figure it out it is simple but you have to do it right.#1. The lock cylinder fits into the ignition cylinder US85.#2 But the lock does not fit all the way in the cylinder.#3. Here is the trick. There is a pin on the rim of the ignition cylinder. Insert the paper clip down through the tiny hole in the top of the lock cylinder when you move the key to center it over the pin.#4. Move left or counterclockwise the key past the pin.#5. Now force the lock down in the clylinder making sure the bottom tab is lined up with the bottom recess of the cylinder.#6. Then move the key clockwise and you are all set.#7. If you installed it right the key will spring back from the far right postion. Just like it should when starting a car or truck.#8. If you didn't do it right the key will just act dead instead of springing back. I know because I did it wrong several times. I wrongly set the lock with the key far right instead of left past the pin.#9 This seems to be an old Ford generic key lock set up. I installed mine in a 1995 Ford L8000 which is a semi truck. I suspect a lot of old Fords of various models had the same set up.#10 It may take a while but don't give up. It was aggravating at first because I could not remove the key. You can only remove the key once it is set in the cylinder. But keep in mind you can set it wrong and still remove the key. It is only set right when the key springs back as if you were starting the vehicle.#11. Good luck.
