Whew thankfully he called us after reading a few of these directions. In the future if any of you lose your key you take a short 2" wire and stick one end in large red wire terminal on back of ignition switch and other end in the large pink wire terminal, this gives power to the trucks electrical system to supply power for points or HEI Distributor, then you take a second wire from large red wire on back of the ignition switch and touch it to the purple wire which begins cranking the motor over as soon as motor starts remove the 2nd wire to disengage the starter.
You can use a screwdriver at starter to crank motor over to start also instead of using a second wire. You guys would have had him scavenging all over several, several feet of wire and then a few had the wrong wires posted to start the truck and keep it running.
So Red to pink for power, red to purple to crank motor over.
