Just want to say I recently bought a 67 442 not running but a very buildable car. I mentioned in another post that i had no keys for the car. Joe Padavano told me to take out the drivers door lock cylinder and send him the code on it. He apparently has some vintage key cutter with GM codes. I sent him the code and 10 bucks as he requested. Got the key today and WA LA it works!!!
It turns the ignition and door locks..... Im amazed!
Thanks Joe your amazing too! Your a wealth of information. And a great guy!
Thank you again
Steve

 

Is this true, Joe? I've got 2 Cutlasses (Cutlaii??) that need ignition keys, a '71 Supreme and a '72 Ragtop. Can you make me some keys??

 

Yes. PM me with the four character lock code from the outside of the cylinder.

 

Steve,

Thanks. I'm glad that worked out for you.

 

I've never been lucky enough to find codes stamped on anything newer than the 60's. Always had to end up taking them apart.
