Can anyone tell me how to remove the glove box lock on a 37 without a key? It still has the lever and thin metal clip on the back side. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I had a similar problem with a glove box lock too. The key is required to remove the lock without damage. Maybe a local locksmith will have a large hoop of GM keys and can help?

The only way I know to open one without the key or a good locksmith is to cut open the bottom of the liner and manually release the locking pawl.

johnni, take it to an older lock guy and he can make you one.

I have the "instructions" somewhere that a guy sent me years ago on how to take the lock apart. He used to advertise in the VCCA monthly magazine. I'll have to dig to find them.....if you cannot find the answer.....send me a PM.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
