I wish I would've known about the paperclip trick.

The first thing I did to my Mach 1 was drill out the ignition lock cylinder... and while I was taking the driver seat out this weekend, I found the keys the previous owner had lost under the seat (pretty much embedded in what's left of the carpet). Grrrr!!!

Yes you have to have the key for the paperclip trick. Another place you might get lucky and old salvage yard may have a stash of keys and you would be surprised how easy it is to find one that will work.
