Well just picked these two up. Can't find the old thread that had sources for parts, keys and such. These locks have been drilled but not correctly. As always thanks for any help!!
Heavy buggers.

Creighton,

There's a guy on Ebay that sells parts.  His Ebay user name is tony20nascar1 .  I'm not sure what all he has, but he has sold rebuild kits and decals.

I think you may be thinking of ebay user "metermen."  He passed away last year. http://feedback.ebay.com/ws....etermen

You may just try ebay and look at other items that people sell.  Let us know what you find since I will probably be looking for a few locks soon.  I had to drill both locks on my Duncan.

Thanks all! Only thing I'm finding for these models (VIP) is from Duncan themselves. I'll give them credit for one tough coin box lock. Have a 1/4" hole clear through and it's not budging. Will update with what I find.

Creighton, Duncan is located here in Harrison and until a few years ago they did most of the meters here.  I know the Manager of the plant, what do you need, maybe I can help....

Hi Joey,  yeah I think they were HQ in Chicago but most of the parking meters were made right here....I have one they gave me that they converted into a lamp.   The malls have done away with the need for parking meters and they have re tooled here and make mostly coin changer parts not sure what brand though....

Outstanding news g.b.harp!!
No rush at all but :-) ... Some help on getting the round coin doors open and how to order new locks and keys. Doesn't look like the top locks have been mucked with so hopefully just keys there.
What a great board!
Thanks!!
