Which key # for this 72 GT380 ignition?

Post by Evans Ward »

Trying to find the missing key for this 1972 GT380 ignition. I bought key #33324 off eBay but it doesn’t fit. I also see a 3 digit # on the side of the unit which looks to be 203? Can anyone confirm 203 is what I need? Thanks!

The original ignition switches for my 72 GT380 & 72 GT550 have 5 digit #s. They use single-edged keys that can only go in one way.

The keys with 3 digit #s are two-edged keys that can go in either way.
Look in the key slot to see if the lock uses a two-edged key.

I sent the key back for a refund and ordered 2 others in same 5 digit # from another eBay seller. Apparently, the initial key (first purchase) was cut/ keyed incorrectly ad the new ones work like a charm! :wth:
