Just found this...

I was going through drawers in the garage looking for something else and found this. Anyone else remember what it's for? Hint: VW related. I'm sure someone remembers.

Yep^^. Key for engine lid cover for type II up through 1965. Also used for gas door up through 1966.

Also used on Unimogs on the hood latches!

Attaboy for everyone! Not even sure why I have it. I think I only had one bus (panel van) and I flipped it before I even drove it.

How much you want for it?

I had a 1960 Bug, and the gas filler was in the trunk, like a 914. My 73 bug had no gas door lock at all that I remember. It has been 46 yeas since I sold it.

I do remember using those on the Type 2.

So, do you want to sell it? All I have is a repro one, and it sucks
