- A quick look at the Lockwood NOS drawer/cupboard latch type lock from the GMH Woodville Plant Adelaide. A special order from Lockwood back in the day for specific GMH use maybe. I forgot to mention the GMH W stamping on the bezel. And hopefully an answer for Un Common Sense and an item that might be of interest to the Canadian Pitbull:-)
Breaks my heart seeing my beloved GMH gone for our shore's for every but its great to see part of its history even a small piece like this preserved .. I miss my LH Torana
Thanks mate. Yeah, it was a bad day when Holden rolled the last VF Commodore off the line at Elizabeth. Have a good one:-)
Memories mate, going to miss Holden. Hey with the drag race you have on with Chris and Suki, might to time to change the motor of the Bentley to a Monaro GT I think it was the 351. Now that was a beauty. Great info for Un co and the Pitbull.
Thanks PW. It doesn't look good mate. I doubt i have the horsepower to match his time:-)
Beautiful locks Paul , love them lockwoods my friend , you have a great week
Thanks Pete. Have a good one:-)
Seen a 234 with a lockwood twin core a few weeks back.
Good bit of history on the old GMH lock.
Thanks mate. Yeah, i noticed that too. Genuine Lockwood ex factory. I reckon it would have gone for a good price:-)
@@crankylock7844 yep. It had demo stamped on the keys.
Would have been a nice one to have. But too steep for my wallet lol
Hi Paul, That wafer Lockwood "cupboard" lock was fitted on the spare wheel compartment of the Holden panel vans. The compartment was at the rear below the panel van rear doors. I believe they used them from 1963 EJ through EH, HR, HD and perhaps beyond, I'm not sure when they stopped producing the panel vans. Anyway that's where GMH used these locks. Regards, Brian.
P.S. Should have said HD, then HR ... apparently it stands for Hastily Designed and Hastily Revised ! (:-))
@@brianhignett8954 lol!! Holden padlocks show up from time to time on eBay. But I think these were for locking the spare wheel in the car boot.
Thanks Brian. Appreciate the intel on the lock. Was a bit lost on their specific purpose. It's good to know their history with GMH. Have a good day:-)
@@brianhignett8954 lol. Thanks Brian. Might be some truth in that statement. Have a good one:-)
Good to see the ants out checking out your new mat. 🐜
Thanks William. Bloody ants. Can't keep their noses.....well, their antennas, out of the picture:-)
Sweet cabinet lock. I bought some recently but they are the default warded cabinet lock type from the 70's. Keep the GMH lock, anything GMH will now go up in price.
Thanks Donz. PS. Thanks for the voucher:-) You didn't have to do that, but appreciated:-)
@@crankylock7844 no problem my friend, I didn't expect a freebie and appreciate your ongoing support. I'm sure you will make good use of the voucher... I was going to get you a perfume voucher. Haha. Cheers Paul. 🍺✌😎
Chris doesn't have ants!
Good video you guys are something! 👍👍👍👍🧡
Thanks Cherokee. Yeah, the little sods hang around to try and get into my iced coffee which is always to the side. Been lucky so far, only lost one iced coffee the a hoard of sugar ants:-)
Nice locks, that cabinet lock is cool
Thanks AJ. I have learned that it was for the tyre compartment lid in the early Holden motor vehicles:-)
Really interesting & great to get a lock that has a history.
Nice quick pick as well. 👍
Thanks Daz. Have a good one mate:-)
Really great locks Paul, great stuff
Thanks Thumper:-)
@@crankylock7844 welcome brother
Interesting video Paul,the master info was nice to see,did you see any info in there on the Discontinued Beast # 19 I featured in 424?
Cheers!
Thanks Mur. I don't recall. I will have another look:-)
Cool GMH!

Sweet lock mate.. sad to see holden go..
Thanks Craig. Yeah, it was a day we lost a part of our history. Have a good one:-)
Great learning video mate thanks 👌
Thanks Ben:-)
Very cool locks, man!
Thanks Derek:-)
What were Holden using the cabinet locks for? Couldn't have been for their crappy glove boxes.
Brian has pretty much set me/us straight with the initial use of the locks. If you read his comment then you will get the story of their use. Interesting connection between Ogdens and GMH:-)
@@crankylock7844 Thanks, Paul.
don't all the hard locks get the grinder and drill works? if you do a few of those then your a specialist?
Thanks Bird. You may be right:-)
*Pokes his head in the door* Did some one say lockwood twin ? lol
lol. Get yourself back in your room. lol. Have a good one:-)
