I think you'd have to jumper the back of the ignition switch so that it was effectively in the "run" position - sending power to the coil. Then somehow get hte starter to turn over and the solenoid to engage (jump the big thick cable to the spart solenoid connection, or run a wire from b+ on the regulator to the spare terminal on the solenoid, or push start it).

BTW - Tony E. "the key man" who advertises in the Registry magazine should be able to cut you a new key by key-code number for the lock (K-1xx or K-3xx).
