congratulations on a most excellent find!

did you get the key with it?

appears transfer may have been removed from frame pump; or perhaps this is just a wear mark from use...

enjoy!

Nice Superbe. I had the same oval pedals on a '69 Sports. Someone grabbed your grips : ) and your dynohub and light set . I used to have a bookmark on my old tablet for a place that made keys for VWs and other foreign vehicles (non US made) and you could also get those fork lock keys. That tablet crashed and I lost the site info. Maybe @SirMike1983 has the key info. I could use sets for my his-n-hers '73 Superbes.

Try Steve Sandlin. http://www.steveslockshop.com/

I bought keys for my 1962 Raleigh roadster from him.
