Sunbeam/Hillman Key Blank

I am missing the key for my 67 Sunbeam Minx. Looked on Ebay and the blank keys they show are not the same. Can someone who has a 65-67 Hillman/Sunbeam Minx post a pic of the key, so that I can get the correct blank and have locksmith make me a key? Thanks
 
Took the ignition switch apart, no numbers. One thing I saw that is suspect. It said "made in America" so I suspect the switch has been changed to a generic during it's lifetime.
 
Yea, sounds like it. Should have been a number on the face or barrel of the lock assembly, and the switch itself should have Lucas on the back where the terminals are for an original.
