A new project : a 5000TD !

Well, a reader of my magazine just offered me a car for free : a 1984 5000
turbo diesel automatic !

 

Car is in a garage since 6 years, no rust at all, it need a PS hose and some
work on the injection system to help with the cold starts. 

 

But for now, the biggest problem is the keys : the grand-children of the
actual owner lost the keys. They removed a door lock to have one re-created,
but this key doesn't work in the ignition. So, for now, what I need is a way
to unlock the steering column and have the car towed here so I can work on
it a bit. 

 

Any tips ?
