DT3 fork lock

I have a 1973 250 Enduro which I purchased new. I have had it stored in my garage for the past 3 years under plastic here in Florida. I recently want to use it but I cannot unlock the fork. If I remember correctly to unlock I have to turn the key counter-clockwise. Is this correct? I have tried wiggling the handle bars and spraying with penetrating oil with no success. Does any one have any ideas?
