This very interesting K R Wilson key cutter is advertised for sale by ML28 in the For Sale Section on Ford Barn.

Interesting Unfortunately the code book doesn't appear to have V8 Key codes (at least not mentioned by the seller)
Not sure how easy the correct code book would be to source

My Curtis Code book 13th edition covers all cars up to 1952, so I think the 12th edition would cover at least to 1948.
All you need is the Curtis key cutter and the proper carriage along with the codes found in the book to cut keys for our V8s.
I don’t know how the Curtis codes apply to the KRW key cutter.

The Curtis codes were the industry standard and were used by the K R Wilson device as well. The KRWilson device actually ground or filed the grooves into the keys and did not punch them out like the Curtis key cutter.
