A-18330-A is the part number for a Model A spare tire lock.
They were made by Fox or Oakes.

I don't know exactly how these locks are supposed to work, but the key won't turn anything, so it may be just a ket somebody put in it.

I looked online and in my copy of the Ford "bible' and the A-18... are spre tire locks, but I don't see that number. I also looked under the Model A part numbers, but the number isn't there, either.

I've added a few pics of the lock, below.

Anyone know what year vehicle the lock is for ??

Thanks is advance for any assistance anyone can provide in identifying the lock.
