ive been currently looking at these keys but it says that they wouldn't fit a 68 model but I'm curious if they would?

Re: keys
This information about Corvair keys was extracted from the CORSA Tech Guide, Volume 2, pages "Body 10-11", and may be helpful in understanding the technical differences between the various generations of keys used in Corvairs over the years of production. It explains why 1960-1966 key blanks are compatible and mostly consistent from year to year (with the exception of the use of two separate ignition/door and trunk keys for Late Model cars), but that 1967 key blanks are different from 1968 key blanks, and that they changed again in 1969!
