This stamping is on the housing of a '46 ignition switch. Is the "6301" a key code? [IMG]http://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag140/68ironhead/igswitch001_zpsa33be435.jpg[/IMG]

It is doubtful the key code would be stamped on the housing. I have seen some key cylinders stamped with the code but most are not. Most door lock cylinders are stamped with their code.

OK, should have checked the parts manual first,
that stamping matches the factory part number only, not key code.

homer, you won't find repro 41-46 switches, but Chevs of the 40s has some posibilities that could be adapted, and you can always try a parts wanted post
