There is a junction box on the pass side frame rail that is accesible from the underside of the passenger fender(not to be confused with the remote jump terminal above it.) If you pop/pry the cover off, you will notice several heay gauge wires bolted together.....this is where your battery,alternator,and starter cables are joined. I have used this location for your exact predicament (broken lock tumblers and dead battery. good luck!

Does anyone know a way to open a V8 that has the battery removed? I've done this 
before and I made a point of leaving it open, but somehow it's locked again.In the 
past, I have gotten half way thru the ski sack opening to attach jumper wires to the 
+ & - cables and used an external battery that then let me use the key in the door. 
I really don't want to do that again! Any other way? The hood is latched and it 
seems slim jims won't fit. How then? Bob
