Packard Forum Index » Pre-War (1899-1942)

Greetings from NC! We are needing photos and the sketch of an original
Key for a 1922 Packard truck. Please PM if you can assist. ( and yes- I've
talked to Dave Lockhart)

Why? Do you need just one to fit the lock or are you trying to reproduce the original key design?

The locks from that era are probably Yale keyways.

The part 148842 is listed in the Truck parts book, but that is the style they used up thru 1952 so it is probably too new for a 1922.

You should OCR this parts book then search for key, and whatever numbers you find, cross reference with the car part numbers in the other parts books to check the application (for example a key could be a woodruff key, or straight key, as used in mechanical components).

You can then see if you can get a drawing from the Studebaker museum or Bruce Blevins, given the part number.
