Thanks, Joe. Love your truck, BTW. And yeah, I did consider the down side of putting my VIN and key code info out there, but the story was compelling enough (in my humble opinion) to justify any possible consequence to myself. I just thought that the MOPAR faithful would find this an interesting treatment of a subject that is rarely covered. Everyone has keys, right? Also, the codes and code book used above are obsolete and not used anymore, so it would be nearly impossible for someone to have some keys made - especially since the cutting devices that used these codes are all gone. Besides, who would want to steal a brown 1974 Duster with 236K miles on it? Definitely not worth a trip to prison for grand theft auto.
