Default Dumb Question on 69 Impala

Hi - I bought a very worn 69 Impala Custom 2 door htp and just started
to figure out what trouble I have gotten myself into - anyway my
question is does the same key open both the trunk and the doors or
does the ignition key open the doors also - I have the trunk key to
the car but not the ignition key - I cannot get the trunk key into the
door locks but they are so rusty and sticky that I am not sure if the
key doesn't work or it is just the door locks that are the problem

Anyway any help would be appreciated and thanks for your patience -
this is probably the first of a few questions I will be asking as I
start working on this beauty

If memory serves, the ignition key opens the doors also. The trunk key
and the glove box key are the same.

I think that's pretty much the norm for all US cars from somewhere around
the mid 80's back.
What part of the globe are you on, Don?
