1951 spare tire LOCK question

[sawzall]

wondering if the 1951 ford cars were all cars delivered with the spare tire locks> ( as shown below.) (i find it hard to believe these were "standard" because a sedan our coupe really donest require these, however a wagon or a pickup would..

obviously to install one the special lugnut that it mounts to would be and obviously the correct key.

I guess, assiming that these were "accessory" would these locks use the same keys (pattern) as the ignition and door? or were they a different "cut" (assuming that the spare lock is NOT standard per car)

thanks in advance!
