Classic Car Key Replacement

You’ve put time, money, and love into your classic car. We get it. The last thing you need is to be stuck without a key. We’ve been making keys for classic and vintage vehicles since 1981 — and we offer a mail-in service for owners anywhere in the U.S.

Modern cars use computer-programmed transponder keys that most locksmiths can handle. Classic cars are a different story. Many older key profiles are no longer in production, key codes are hard to track down, and the locks themselves often need special attention after years of use.

Most locksmiths don’t have the equipment or the know-how to cut keys for vintage vehicles. We do — and we’ve been doing it for over 40 years.

Common Questions

Can you make a key for my classic car without the original?

In most cases, yes. We can decode the lock and cut a replacement key. Contact us through the website and we’ll walk you through what we need.

Why can’t a regular locksmith help with my vintage car?

Older key profiles aren’t in the standard key blank database most locksmiths use. It takes specialized knowledge and hard-to-find blanks to cut keys for vintage vehicles — that’s exactly what we specialize in.

Should I get a spare key made while I still have the original?

Absolutely. Getting a spare made from an existing key is faster, easier, and less expensive than replacing a lost key. For classic cars especially, it’s worth doing sooner rather than later.
