Hot wire/lost keys 1947 Plymouth Special Deluxe

Can anyone help? I lost the keys to my 47 and need to hot wire it (I guess). My initial thought is to cross the wires going into the keyed switch, then I can just use the push button start to turn over the engine. Will this work? On a similar note, I'd like to know if anyone has a key set they would like to sell.

Thanks!

You can jump the coil from the battery. But I think the ign needs to be in the on position before the starter button is engegized. But you can jump the solenoid with an pair of old pliers or something similar. Just be aware there will be sparks so make sure you have no gas leaks. If you have a remote starter button (mechanics helper) you can jump the solenoid from the bat aslo.
