... With no cars?

They came from a Lancia Garage when it closed 20 years ago. Look like Fulvia to Beta era - about a third are official Lancia, the rest are replacements. I suspect the cars they belong to are long gone.

Can they ever serve a purpose?

Could they be re-cut to fit locks that still have a car attached? By that I mean an old Lancia lock with a Lancia still attached.

I don't know. They are of this type:



I will either stick them up as a lot on ebay or make something arty out of them maybe.

Unless they are blanks or have matching locks they are (as the Yanks used to say) as much use as a one legged man in an arse kicking competition.

This is what I suspected :P

Some of them have contact details of the owners on the key fobs. Maybe they need a spare key biggrin

Difficult one isn't it? They will be of use tosomeone, but finding them and avoiding the keys falling into the wrong hands would be hard....

They are for a Beta, not a Fulvia.
Any blanks?
