I have a 73 with one key that starts the car. Key does not fit the alarm or the spare tire lock. Whats my next step. Thank You.

Re: 73 cpe alarm key.

The same round head key should unlock the spare tire, the alarm and the "glovebox" aka center storage compartment. "Assuming" that none of the 3 have been changed, you can get the key code from the lock on the center storage compartment, and bring that code to a local locksmith to have a round head key made. If I recall correctly, you will have to remove the lock from the center compartment, and the code is 4 (?) characters stamped on the lock. I'm sure that if I'm wrong, someone else will comment.

The code is also on the alarm lock cylinder, but that's much more difficult to access. I do not know if it's on the spare tire lock.
