If the need arises, I have already pulled the ignition tumbler, key, and door handles off your 65 and I'd be happy to send them to you gratis if you want to cover the postage to HI.

Regarding your current problem, I bought a replacement dash a while back and found a key broken off in the tumbler. It was too far gone. After trying in vain for quite some time to release the tumbler lock, I ended up drilling out the keyway. This allowed me to remove the tumbler easily. I had a couple spare key/tumbler sets so I could afford the sacrifice, but I still hated wasting a good tumbler.

Consider it a last-resort solution.
