I think I found it...
-
I went on a little adventure with my car last night. We planned on moving it out to Chafee tonight and I went to get some gas so I wouldn't have to find a place on thanksgiving. I dropped my girlfriend off at her house and stopped at tacobell. Not even thinking about it I got out of the car and when I got inside I looked in my hand and the key was in it! THE FRICKEN THING CAME OUT WHEN I DIDNT TRY! So i was pretty pumped. The some kids were cocking off to me cuz they thought i was trying to make my exhaust loud(of course I wasn't, hole in muffler) so i decided to take him for a stock ride. I got in put the key in and it wouldn't turn. I guess from trying to be jerked out so many times, it wore down the key in the ignition. SO I was fucked. No way to start my car. I tryed a little bit harder and sure enouhg, I broke off the key.I called a buddy out to come puch it into the hotel parking lot so it wouldnt get towed. we pushed it back out of the parking spot, I reached in to turn the wheel, and it locked up on me. damn safety features! It just so happens that this friend of mine's dad is an oldschool rodder, who just happens to have a built 1985 jimmy and a 15 foot car trailer. We called his dad up, and he came over to rescue me. Loading a car with the steering wheel locked is no easy task. Also, a bunch of drunk people from south were like swearing at me to move the car and shit so it wasnt too cool. We got it home and safe. ALl I gotta do is wait til tomorrow and go to ford and have a real key made from the VIN. I am not so sure that the key in there was the right one. My only hope is that the ignition wore the key down, and the key didnt wear the ignition teeth down. AND that the ignition is the factory one, otherwise, I have NO idea what I am going to do.

I second you. NOthing but bad luck for me... YOu can still come see the broken key in the ignition if you want a good laugh, OR just come look at the car and youll immediatly drop to the ground with laughter. -
good luck with the probe man, you should fix the body somewhat, not perfect but atleast make it one color
