It has been in a field for about 10+ years and the keys to it that were left in there when parked are gone. I guess mice like shiny things that rattle! There are no door locks, just a glovebox lock and ignition. I have been told I can get the glovebox and ignition lock cylinders for about $10-$20, but not told where to get them. I have found a classic GM website and for 2 door lock cylinders, a glovebox lock, and an ignition, it is $50+Shipping. The story and plans for this truck are on my profile posts and it is called, "Fixing the Family Truck". Anything is helpful. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,215 Moderator | | Moderator Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,215 | Are you certain there is no door lock on the passenger side? I bought new ignition and glove box locks, locally, not too expensive. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2011 Posts: 194 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2011 Posts: 194 | Yes, I am certain. They may have been replaced later on with ones without keys. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 |
1955 first-series or second series truck?
People might be able to post information on door-lock sets after seeing the above information.
I have not checked lately, but Classic Parts used to have matching lock sets for 1955-1st series trucks (I'll look for them once we know your series).
