Starting on 70 SWB
Starting on my70 SWB v8 ps pb with custom interior. I lost the key, so i had to cut the old switch out.
This will be a driving, slow resto. I want to get it running, check all safetey concerns such as brakes and suspension. My question is best place to buy Ignition key cylinder, switch, and door locks. LMC has a matched set, but name and country of manufacture unknown. rock auto has AC Delco for about the same price, but not matched. Has anybody used LMC locks ans switch?? How is LMC quality?? Thanks in advance. |

This is my experience from my restoration which is just about completed.
LMC parts are pretty crappy quality. I bought from brothers and classic industries. Body panels are summit are tin can garage. The brothers lower door skin was 100 times better than the summit I read that Mar-K are high quality. More expensive of course. This is just my experience Hope it helps.
