I've got a 1974 TA22 front grille, but I am in Perth and you are right for those.
Toyota still sell fuel caps and keys to suit all the early Corolla's and Celica's. Last time I got one it was $50 I think.
Its worth looking into if you don't find an aftermarket and cheaper alternative.
Moral of the story - don't lose the fuel cap key ! Very Happy
Cheers,
Mitch.

nah '74 and earlier have 3 keys: - door/ignition, fuel, boot

hey magic mitch my boot key opens my fuel cap so you can try that. you will notice that cause the keys are old and worn they may opena few things. also my boot key starts my new '22. lucky cause i didnt get any keys with the new one Confused

also if you got another '22 key (any one) you can file the edges down a bit and it will open anything in respect to '22s Rolling Eyes did i say that

Re: Celicas fuel caps/keys Sun, 26 September 2004 13:44 Go to previous messageGo to next message
i only have 2 keys... ignition/door and a boot key..i think the lock on the boot is pretty new by the looks of it but im starting to think that the fuel cap thats on there atm is the wrong one? not from a ta22? its pretty boring lookin compared to some that ive seen from ta's, my model is the one with the fuel cap between the tail lights. does anyone have a pic of the 1972 ta22 fuel cap (cap between tail lights model)?? big ask but its worth ago..

ive tried picking the lock with a number of things...it wont budge, i dont know what to do HELP??

i wanna drive my baby but im scared ill run out of petrol(fuel gauge reads well under E) at the bottom of my hill.

there must be a way to get around it. on the 23s you could just unbolt the fuel take to get some movement in there and then take of the big hose going to the filler neck and fill it up from there.
the 22's could be similar i'm not sure.

whats the 3 key thing about, call me stupid but won't toyota make them all the same? Sure mine has 2 keys different for fuel but boot, doors and ignition are the same. I just figured that the previous owner losed the the fuel cap therefore requiring a new one with a different key.

try any random early toyota key in it you can get your hands on, you will find one out of at least 5 will work. if not maybe oxy the barrel out and turn it Rolling Eyes
