Call the locksmiths in your area. Most likely you can find one that has the tumblers for older vehicles and he can match your lock to your ignition. Bring the assemblies to his shop. I did the same about a year ago and he only charged me $20. I don't know the vintage of your project, but my locksmith seemed to enjoy working on old stuff and even encouraged me to hang around and watch.
