I guess I'll buy the locking cap and see if I can get it re-keyed. And you did sell the brake master assembly?

Speaking from experience : DMCH can re-key those.
Many years ago, I got my hands on a locking cap w/o key. I brought it to several locksmithes : they couldn't do anything. I brought it to Houston : James took it apart, and made it match my car key. IIRC : cost was around $30
Hey Jeff, I could use these:
Front parking lights 108057
License plate light brackets 108747 $8.
Although you're so far away, I can make the drive over to pick them up if you'd like.

Originally the gas cap had it's own key, it was not keyed to the door or the ignition. On the early cars with the gas flap you got 2 ignition keys, 2 door keys and 2 gas cap keys. It is known as the "2 key system" because you had a door key and a different key for the ignition. The door key had a tiny light in the head of the key.
The 2 key system is no longer supported by DMCH. If you need anything they will tell you to convert to the 1 key system. You can also try Jesser Locks. He has parts and can still service the 2 key system. With the 1 key system you got 2 keys. They were both the same and each worked the doors, ignition lock and cubby. No locking gas cap because there was no more gas flap. You did not get the light in the key but now DMCH can give you blanks for the 1 key system with a light. Codes for the keys were written in marker under the headliner of the driver's door and there was a tiny round sticker on the steering column. DMC converted to the 1 key system because they had complaints about people jamming the keys in the locks. There was a Service Bulletin instructing how to carefully insert the key. My guess is owners were trying to use the ignition key on the doors. DMCH can provide keys by code if you have the code or if you send them a photocopy of a key, they can "read" the codes off of the key. They also have some records of key codes to vin #'s. Using the locking gas cap is a pain, you need to handle the key and the fumes wash out any lubrication and make the lock stiff and hard to operate. Most owners forgo using the locking gas cap.
If you got the ski rack it came with it's own set of 2 keys that were different from all of the other keys.
