keys - early BD should have the 'Volcano' key, late BD should have the 'Lotus Leaf' key

Here is the VOLCANO-keyblank:

Early Barndoor key blank, manufacturer: BuM =Bocklenberg & Motte, Wuppertal-Ronsdorf, Germany.

Accordingly to Gabriel Garcia (thanks!) this key was used for 1950~1953 Barndoor bus, drivers side door handle, cargo door lock, and engine lid T handle.
1952~1953 Barndoor Single cab (if any alive) drivers side door handle, side cargo door lock (treasure chest lock) engine lid T handle. BD cargodoors and engine lids.

Yes, that is the key my Barndoor Single Cab had for the driver's door handle. There is no engine lid T-handle on a Single Cab.

How should the upper rear hatch handle look like compared to the engine lid one then? I am missing the handle for my 54 panel with the optional hatch..

Same handle as the engine lid.
