Thread: Need help finding Keyed Locks

Tweet

Hello to everyone, where can I obtain a set of 3 key matched locks for doors and trunk lid? the car is a model A 1930 cpe . I've searched the hardware stores
and can only find single units where the keys aren't interchangeable I would need to carry 3 keys in this case. the car is not "show quality" and any ideas
for locking will be greatly appreciated.

a lock smith could re work the locks so they take the same keys

I just pull all the tumblers out and chuck 'em! Nobody knows the difference, and any key that fits the slot will open them. Just don't tell anybody!

OOPs......I think you just did!

D'oh!!!!!
Oh, well, you guys aren't car thieves, and anyway, you don't know where I live!

Don't the A suppliers sell them, Like Bratton's or Snyder's? Have you perused Fordbarn? You local A club should have a gaggle of old hoarders that are good to know, unless you are a hotrodder.lol
I got in good with them by just hanging out and doing stuff most of them couldn't figure out, (just 'cuz their old doesn't make them handy)

I got a set of matching door handles from George Moires in Stoney Plain Alberta ( Canada) for my '31 Model A. He doesn't have a web site but always answers his phone.

He usually ships the same day and I have it by morning. He knows his stuff and has a great catalog.
