Default 40 glove box lock

I don’t have a key that fits the glove box in my’40. I removed the lock and took it to a locksmith who advised he could make a key to fit the lock, but could not key the lock to one of the existing keys. I would like to be able to do this, because the car already has 3 keys- one for the ignition, one for trunk, and one for door. Can this lock be keyed to one of the 3 existing keys? Thanks, Sid

Should only need two keys for those four locks, door and ignition would be one key and trunk and glovebox should be the other.

Yes send it to Phil, he cut me some keys that worked better than the first one cut at a local locksmith.
