I have been trying to track down a set of door locks and ignition barrel to suit a 72 Matador ( would like the same key for all) I have found some in the states but was wondering if there was anyone in Australia worth trying first as the US stuff is pricey.
Thanks in advance

Ignition lock is the same as Holdens of that era, not sure about door locks. Any decent locksmith should be able to sort out matching keys for you if you have existing locks.

Ignition barrel is dead and gone just figure now is the time to sort the issue door locks are getting sad they are just wearing out so in theory if i replace with NOS now they should almost see me out.

Rockauto.com has new ignition barrels with keys from US$25 including shipping to Australia, doubt you will get them any cheaper here. cost me $40 to get a new key cut for mine.

Not sure on the door locks though. Maybe ask outside the Aussie section for some better answers on US options.

They send you a fridge magnet with each order, the cabinets in my shed are plastered with them.
