Truck came with no keys !! Now what ?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

When I picked up my 63 from the original owner, he didn't have any keys for it.

The ignition turns and starts with out a key, just doesn't go all the way to the lock position...and the doors obviously cannot be locked.

My question is how could I go about getting some keys for this truck ?? Do you think a locksmith could make new keys for the door locks ?? I could change out the ignition to one of those universal boat ignitons....but the doors are what I'm really worried about.

Would I have to get new handles ?? Are they available ?? If so, they are probably very expensive.

Any info would be great !!!
