door locks
I have a 64 that I want to have my original door locks and ignition keyed alike. I know I can buy a new set, which I did but the quality of the new set is poor. Do you know any locksmiths able to do this? Thanks

Most locksmiths can do this. I would go with an old timer though!

If you are okay with modern key blanks you can probably hire any locksmith. If you want original style it's a little harder. At least it was for me. None of the locksmiths near me would touch old style blank keys. I was told it does something bad to their cutting machine. One former member on here posted some time ago that he was able to find a local locksmith in Florida near him that did his car so you might get lucky calling around.
I found someone through NCRS that did mine. I didn't change my locks though, I had original keys cut to match my GM key code. I also sent my spare tire lock and had it matched to use the same key.
There is a company called Jesser's that does the work but I believe he is quite expensive.

I see your in Harleysville. Down in Prospect Park near the Phila. airport there is a locksmith on their main street that does what you are looking for. I had locks done by them for a couple restorations and they were great. I also wanted factory G.M. stuff.
