Title: GM silversides bay door key
Post by: bs4104 on April 09, 2021, 07:27:38 AM
Paul MacLaren from Western GM lost his bay doors wrench (key) on trip to rally at Longstreet Casino/R.V.Park
Looks like a 3/8 speed wrench tapered on one end 3/8" on other end.
might any one have original one fo him?? 805-223-4746 cell no text 805-377-3342 for text only and 805-649-1826 home or

WAG here, but is it possible that an EM VW bus "church key" used to open the fuel fill and rear engine hatch might work?  I know they're often used to replace the missing ones on Crown skoolies.  Two styles, a "T" and a "P", cost is around $15 or so. Below are a couple photos of them.

Just thinking outside the box a little. . .

FWIW & HTH. . .  ;)

Those won't work.  Use a 3/8 speed handle or ratchet w/extension.

Thx, Mark -

I was hoping you would pop in and help, because if anyone should know, it would be you! Especially since it was a WAG on my part. . .

I have you covered. I will give you a call. I can bring one out to you in a few weeks when I make my next trip out.
