Ok, some fun here for the members who have post 18 T's. Why you ask? Today wile cleaning up the back garage I found a set of master keys and on the ring was a single Ford T key, number 67. I looked at the number and said to myself that's the same as my touring, so it must be a spare my Dad had. When I looked in the front garage and sure enough its the same number.
SO the game is this, with looking at your key ring or in the car do you know the number to your switch?
SO POST THE NUMBER YOU THINK IT IS WITH OUT LOOKING. Then later look to see if it is as you thought. If not a second post letting the rest of us know you were wrong.....LOL
55
Grandfather's 27 coupe #55. My other T's, I have no clue.
Screw driver. ;^)
Seriously #64.
66, I will never forget because when I first got the car and looked at the key, I wasn't sure if it was 99 or 66. Soon I learned Ford never went up to 99 with T keys.
1914 Touring - The same as every other 14, 17 Speedster Yale #KW74812, 23 Hack #55, 26 Coupe #61. I know because I am a nerd and have a spare set for all of them including the 14. (I had to cheat on the number on the Yale lock).
'24 Tudor...52.
I used to know, but about ten years ago I bought a replacement switch and got the generic key that came with it. Not sure what the original was and the replacement doesn't have a number stamped on it.
Dick, I believe your number would be 55.
Stephen
Stephen, very possible. I do recall that the replacements all use the same number. Just couldn't remember what it was....
currently 55, but originally 68.
Sorry, '22 non-electric. No dash no standard switch on the coil box. Just the "split" longer handled keys.
74 the year I graduated from High School.
Mark,
We graduated the same year!
Mine's a 55. It was the only one that they were out of stock on at Texas T Parts when I tried to get a spare!
53 iknow because i bought a spare
My coupe uses number 60. The neat thing about it is that a long time ago, I got a lot of old stuff from my grandfather's estate (nobody else wanted it). In all that stuff were two model T keys. One of them was a number 60. I use that key. I bought new ones for spares.
Drive carefully, and enjoy, W2
Mine is 72, there is a "B" under the Ford, what does that indicate?
Have to be honest, would need to look at all 4 cars,but if I need one I have a master set to help me in finding out what I need. Good post,made me think.
Bob
Is this a trick to get me to give you my key#?
Barney has a #65; I think I have at least 3 copies!
T' Margaret uses the "church key" ('16 model). I don't remember what the '26 uses, though!

Kep, don't need a your key number, remember I have a set of master keys?.....lol
I think my key is a repro. It says "Jim the Fix'r - 193K" on it.
All 3 of mine use 61.
May 26 1926 Tudor .... key # 55, wow thats a lot of 55 keys around, what is the most popular or most widely used # key...my bet is 55.
David.
'24 roadster - Key #70 (The year BEFORE I graduated from high school. :-)
'16 toe-matic parade stopper.
54, 66 and ... I forgot the 3rd one
The '20 chassis was also 60, same as my birth year... the chassis (and a lot of my T speedster goodies stored there by dad) got sold out from under me by a shady museum deal right after dad died... but still have the key. (I also remember the engine # - was my computer password for years when they could be all numbers!)
