If it's anything like a slant; one time I got stuck out at the college's parking lot with my dart; bad voltage regulator. What I did was, jump a hot wire from the positive battery terminal to the positive coil. Prime the carburator a bit with fuel. Then with a long screw driver jumped the starter up directly...

Drove it home.

If you have enough access to the starter might want to try this instead of waiting for someone's reply haha just be careful not to toast yourself.
 
Wiring diagrams such as they are

The main feed to the ignition switch is either a big fat red or black, check with your light

brown is "ignition 2" meaning it bypasses the resistor in start

dark blu is "ignition 1" meaning "ignition in run"

yellow is the "crank" that operates the firewall start relay. Don't forget---clutch safety switch? neutral safety switch?

It's probably easier to do under the hood. You can jumper the firewall relay to operate the starter, and clip power to the coil resistor for ignition

What do you have, xactly, fer ignition? Stock points, Mopar ECU, Pertronix, etc?
