wanted '70 280SL lock stuff

Hi, looking for door or ignition lock parts for a 113.044-12-016xxx undergoing a much needed lock restoration where out of 5 locks[ not including the gas cap] the original rusty Ymos key worked ok in the glove box lock! The goal is all locks synced together. This car uses a Ymos HF XXXX code & is a reversible 10 position fairly long key. The key started life on the 250SL after VIN...010355 according to Authentic Classics site. We are interested in even broken handles/ignitions without a key/whatever you might have that has the key section still intact. The earlier 113 locks used a single sided key & the keyhole was off to 1 side, the HF locks had a central key hole, symmetrical in nature. Thanks for checking your stash & getting in touch wth us at "THE.PELKEYS@GMAIL.COM".Please send pics & price including shipping to TX. We are tax exempt in TX & can provide the TX 01-300 document if req'd. Some 111 cars used this Ymos HF profile key stuff on the steering lock also. Thanks tom.
