Well folks,

Taking your advice(s)I asked around and found a locksmiths shop that had been 
around for a long time.
It was small and tucked away next to a quick-stop gas station.
I walked in and handed the man the key, he looked at it, walked over to a wall 
that had thousands of keys on it and pulled a blank from a section marked "MG" 
(!!).
I now have a spare key (that works). Plus a spare for the boot!

As an aside... when I commented that I could see 4 cutting machines behind the 
counter, he replied that there were 5 more in the back of the shop and 
explained that some keys need special cutters!

Every day I learn something new...  <Grin>

Thanks for all your inputs

PS My '76 key is "upsidedown"able
