Re: [FWDLK] hot wiring



I've been running a '50 chevy here that's about half converted to 12V with a
jumper from battery positive to coil positive.  Yours could then be cranked
with a jumper cable from battery to the solenoid hot side, this one has a
starter button in it.

It's been long enough I'd want to bring the oil pressure up before I tried
to run it and its' possible it will need a fuel pump -


Or, you could go buy an igition with keys somewhere and swap them out,
should be able to remove the switch without need of a key on these cars.
