I knew a guy who drove a 99L around for a year or so, and never had a key for his car. He just left a swiss-army knife between the seats and used the screwdriver blade to turn the ignition switch.
I did the same thing once when I lost my car keys in a snowdrift in VT and needed to get back to NY. My '83T would start with anything in the ignition, which I discovered when I accidentally used my dad's key (89 900) in my own car.
What have you got to lose? Go out there and see if the key cylinder is worn enough to be "persuaded" to turn without the key.
