hey guys I bought a 74 2.0 that needs restoration and the seller has no keys. he has blanks. Is the best way to make an ignition key to remove the driver side or passenger side door handle and bring it to a locksmith? Thank you, Joe

Unfortunately there is no knowing if the keys to the doors, or the keys to anything else on the car, match the key to the ignition. If you think the ignition is original probably your best chance is to bring in the lock cylinder from the frunk release handle to get a key made. You can also try the glovebox lock. Both of those are less likely to have been changed. I would seek advice from @thecabinetmaker Good luck!
