Interesting that the V# is 11045 - I've seen them where the number is earlier, but not later. The 7286X number is your key code, though unless you have a book and key cutter, that's just pretty useless information at this point. The earlier "two-key" systems had key codes that started with a 3XXX or 5XXX, and we have some of those keys already pre-cut here. I would love to know what the rest of the scribbles under the headliners mean...though now that I think about it, I would venture to say that the 21/12 is the date (December 21), which would put it 'about' the right time for a door with a VIN of 11045, as they supposedly started the 10XXX (1982) VIN's in December.
