Key Codes - '63 Impala SS - 01/09/23 07:13 PM
Hi there,
I've got a 1963 Impala SS numbers matching survivor in long term storage that I've finally got time to tinker on and hopefully drive this year. My purse was stolen several years ago with the original keys inside, which still causes me to cringe. I need key codes to get a new set cut and I'm wondering if anyone knows of a US company that has access to these codes based on the VIN number? I'm based in Canada, the car is originally from the US. We have a company here in Canada that can provide info on our vintage autos based on the VIN number but they cannot look up this info on vehicles originally sold in the US.
I've tried several US and Cdn Chevy dealerships and they say they don't have records going back far enough. I pulled the door lock and there's nothing that looks like a code stamped on it. My preference is to look up the key codes and get a new set cut before I resort to pulling/replacing the ignition and locks.
Any tips or advice greatly appreciated, thank you!
