First, contact a dealer or good independent mechanic and order a new
set of keys. I would also get a new ignition lock cylinder at the same

right, but i just don't have the time to mess with diagnosis and replacement
of a transmission in a $500 car that I don't need. But given the low
interest in parts from this car (e.g. seats, wood trim, engine, turbo, etc)
I'm probably goign to pass.

Nah, not that much. They just assess a weight fee. For a 7640 lb truck, it's
$350. About $50 less for a 6260 lb truck, and about $50 less than that if you
get one that is under 6000 lbs.
Don't ask how I know this :)
