I think I have working examples of each in inventory. Also, dis-assembly does not require drilling out the lock cylinder. However, if the lock assembly is still attached to the spare tire and on the vehicle, then more drastic measures are in order.
There were two versions of the lock cylinder/spare tire locking hubcap assembly. in '35. The Hurd version which uses the same groove blank as the ignition/door locks, and the Briggs & Stratton version which uses a Briggs and Stratton blank of the period.
If 32phil has already departed to Florida for the winter, I can cut you a key-to-code if you need it soon. $10.00 including the postage.

Don't forget to relieve the tension on the steering column (in the locked position) when trying to turn the ignition lock cylinder, as it will create additional stress to keep you from turning the lock.
Brad,
Did you get my previous PMs with my address, and requesting yours for shipment? I'm concerned that my messaging is not working.

I have several in stock; the later version that allows the key to be removed in locked or un-locked position. $30.00 plus shipping.

If you have the locking glovebox handle option, you can dis-assemble the lock cylinder from the handle assembly and determine the key code stamped on the lock cylinder. If both locks (the trunk and glovebox) are original to the car, they would have the same key code. I can cut you a key to the...
Great work getting the cylinder out. Read the code stamped on the cylinder, and I can send you a key "cut-to-code" for you to try.
