Turn the key about 45 degrees and then depress the small retaining pin on the top of the cylinder then without moving the key get the cylinder back into it's hole, all the way in.

Trunk lock resolved, after trying all recommendations the locksmith had his day and, presto out came the lock cylinder. Junk cylinder cannot be used, so now have to hunt down cylinder for trunk lock on 1941 super deluxe coupe Super Deluxe 41

Before looking for a new cylinder, check your handle to make sure that it is not a reproduction. I am not sure that the original locks will fit in all of the reproduction handles. The original should have a Ford Part number cast into it. You can try Jesser's Classic Keys for a lock. They show up on E-Bay regularly. Tom

Jessers was unable to do a lock for my '41 which has a re-pro handle.

You will either have to look for a Ford handle and lock or buy a new reproduction. The less expensive way is a new reproduction. Chrome plating a Ford handle will cost about the same as the reproduction handle. C & G has the reproduction handles. Tom
