Spitfire Ignition Key

Hi Everyone.
Does anyone know where i can get a spare ignition key cut for my 1500 Spitfire in the Manchester area.It is the early type with the barrel down the steering column if this matters.Any advice much appreciated.I have tried numerous diy shops, they have cut the door & boot keys but seem to have trouble getting an ignition blank.
Thanks Steve.

If he is still there, Wally Lyness a real old fashioned Locksmith used to have a stall on Glossop Market (Fridays and Saturdays). I don't know if he would carry the blanks, but I bet he would know where to get them, or if you have the key number, he may be able to make one up for you. I know he lived in Mossley, so you may be able to track him down.
