Yes we do, check out the link in the video description. (Can't put links in comments). You can get just the decal by itself, or in a kit with a new chrome cover plate.
Hey Joshua, we only sell parts for the 1967-73 Cougar and cars that have parts that cross with the Cougar, so we can't really comment on what it would take on an Olds. You might want to ask on the Oldsmobile Forum: oldsmobileforum.com/
Yep, if you have the original owner's manual, it should have the key codes typed on the inside of the front cover. Or if you don't have the manual, you'll find the trunk / glove box key code on the glove box lock cylinder or trunk lock cylinder, and the door / ignition key code is usually on the driver's side door lock cylinder. With these codes, we can make brand new keys for your car. So on our website, search for "keycode" and you'll find the 2 key listings.
Don, How did you get the captured washer nuts and wedge spacers out of the holes? How do you keep the nuts and washers from falling down into the body of the trunk? Thanks, Antreally
Good question! That is tricky, more so with the trunk lid on the car. If you take the trunk lid off, as shown in the video, at least they will just fall straight down and you can use a magnet to get them out from the access holes.
Could you help me with figuring out the easiest way to read the driver side door lock numbers? Possibly what to remove and how and where to look. Super super mechanically inclined just don't want to mess this baby up figuring out what needs to come off (67 xt7) (barn find style)
womackke You'll probably have to remove the lock cylinder to get a look at the numbers. This involves removing the door panel and reaching up with your hand or a screwdriver to undo the clip on the lock rod, then use pliers to slide out the bigger clip that holds the cylinder in place. Then the whole thing should come out (from the outside) and you can take a closer look at it.
ok that's beautiful an all but let's see you put it back in the trunk. Any tips?? Do you have the bushings on the assembly when you put it back through the trunk? Seems to be a tight fit... huge nightmare...
My trunk lock (the cylinder) wants to come out of the housing during normal use, such as when I go to remove the key. I'm not sure if it would actually come all the way out, as I've not wanted to stop the functionality of the trunk, but it does come out quite a bit. Why does it do this? Is that little button broken on mine?
@@WestCoastClassicCougar One of these days I'll take it off when it gets painted. Not too keen on taking it off while the trunk lid is still on the car. Thanks for reply.
Those are single sided, correct? If that's the case then we can't do them, unfortunately. We can only do the double-sided style as shown. But if yours look like the ones shown here, then yes!
Great! As long as you have your key codes (from your lock cylinders or the owner's manual) we can cut them. They will come on the reproduction Ford / Family Of Fine Cars blanks.

This is great if one of the locks wasn't changed or replaced. Dealing with this now on a 1967 Cadillac Sedan Deville. Took glove box door to locksmith.. They made a key. And sadly it doesn't work in the trunk
@@WiscoMike920 I am not familiar enough with the 67 Cadillac to know how hard pulling the trunk lock cylinder is, with the Cougar that is something most guys can easily do on their own. I had a car door rekeyed a number of years ago and I just brought them the entire lock cylinder assembly. They charged about $50 bucks, but it is hard to say what they are charging for that now.
What am I doing wrong? I can’t get the latch to move far enough to get to the hidden bolt... I gave up and it’s only bolted with one bolt at the moment
It is just a matter of rotating the striker/latch until you can get the socket in there and put the nut on similar to how we removed the nut here: ruclips.net/video/2qvBUCNFf1I/видео.html. It will not slide far enough to get out of the way, but if you rotate it there is a sweat spot where you can get to it. If you try to do it with a 3/8" extension or a driver with a thick shaft, they will be too big to let you line it up; you need a 1/4" drive extension or a driver with a thin shaft. It is not easy, but we have never found an instance where it can't be done. Just takes some patience, the right tool, and some finagling.

classic cars and lunch time shooting, where do I sign up
Looks like you guys have a lot of fun. Wonder if you could do a video that talks about the business and how you built it over the years?
question, if i were to replace a locked up oldsmobile toronado 1984 trunk, what would you suggest me to purchase (lock model) and is it hard to do so

Thanks I enjoyed this lesson. Hey do you guys have a online catalog I'd Like one of those XR7 emblems for my trunk

That sounds likely, the only way to know for sure would be to take the lock assembly out and see what's going on.

Ok how do you get the cylinder out when it won’t turn at all with the key! Thats the whole reason I need to replace it 😊
You can do a bit of research on a "bump key", they're used when a key is missing. Doesn't always work though.
I have a '68 xr7 but no keys. They got lost after all the years in storage. Would you guys be able to help out with that?
A desmostration on how to put in the lock cylinder for an 68 ltd ford trunk. Im having a hard time.
Thx guys Your so helpful.
Hi mate thank you
So the trunk and glove box key are supposed to be the same key?
Yes, from the factory the Cougar used the same key for the trunk and the glove box: secure.cougarpartscatalog.com/67deckglovelock.html
Do you guys make keys for 66 falcons??????
Those are single sided, correct? If that's the case then we can't do them, unfortunately. We can only do the double-sided style as shown. But if yours look like the ones shown here, then yes!
@@WestCoastClassicCougar cool theyre double sided

Many locksmiths can rekey the trunk lock to work with the original key.
@@WestCoastClassicCougar I was told by two shops now that they need the lock removed from the trunk to make a key. So another $300 I'm sure. Ugh lol
