Drop the driveshaft and have it winched onto a rollback.. I've had cars with no suspension winched on, they don't care.

You didn't like what you heard?
Why the second post on this same question? You won't get any better answers this time around.

He wants to drive a hotwired and wrecked car across several states? He also would rather drive home across a few states to get a key instead of paying the local dealer 25 buck for a new key? My guess is the the wrecker driver won't load a car without a key, I know I wouldn't. Smells like rotten fish.
I doubt this person even owns the car. The local dealer could have a new key for him in two days max, of course one has to show id and proof of ownership. If he bought the car from John Smith and there is no title he is sol. |

Not that it helps his situation any. Having the key would definitely be easier than the alternative described.

Hold the phone...Are you telling me that a locksmith can't remove the ignition and make a key same day? And that mercedes dealers keep records of key patterns based on VIN# and can ship a key to a licensed dealer? Guess I better go ahead and order me one and put it in a safe deposit box.

If you had to just start the engine, you can do it from the engine bay easily, pull the vac shutoff line, jump the glow relay, and jump the starter,

Nope, just the mechanical pump.
Why not just go to the closest dealer and buy a key for about $20? |

ok, so I just drove back to nashville and got the key and then came back up. 10 hours on the road, but since I left my title in nashville along with the key, I had no proof that I owned the car, and since I live alone, there was no way to ship it. Im starting a new thread about this car. LOok for "should I drive this?"
