On an older car, to hotwire, all you need to do is run a lead from the coil to the possitive side of the battery and jump the solonoid with a screwdriver, it will fire up. I'v done it with my Chevy, my mom went down to my grandparents and she had the keys in her pocket from getting somthing out of the trunk for me, I had to put the car back up on the ramps, so I ran a lead into the positive side of the battery, and pushed the starter button and it fired up, I pulled it up onto the ramps and pulled the wire to shut it off.
