on my '68 1750 i have a key for ignition, a key for each door (different), a key for the petrol cap, a key for the boot lock! I'm not sure if there is another one for the glovebox or if it's the same as the boot key.
5 keys! too many! i see that alfaholics sells a set of door handles with matching keys. might be worthwhile just to cut down on the number of keys i carry around...

Unless your door handles are in bad shape and you need new ones anyway, I'd think a cheaper/better route would be to bring one of them to a locksmith and have them match lock and key.

My spider also had different keys for each door and I also was missing the glovebox/trunk key. A visit to a local locksmith bringing a lock cylinder and a door handle fixed that. They even found blanks for my other keys to make a spare set... And all for a lot less than the offer from Alfaholics!

I think it's pretty obvious where these came from.
These are all the options for the '74 GTV (US)
This is the link to the site with the blanks, you might want to take a look.
