depends how you want it. If you want to get rid of the key completely like to unlock the steering wheel or not?
It's easy to put a pushbutton in line to the starter solenoid trigger wire to crank it.

'68s have the key on the dash, no wheel to unlock.
I had a '66 I did a push button start on about 18 years ago. It's not hard, but I probably wouldn't do it again.

Added the push start when i did the efi conversion as a security measure.. its hidden and car cant be started using the key.. just being careful after my 82 was stolen..

If i was to do it i think i would like to get rid of the key all together like the newer cars. Won't start unless the key is in a certain feet of the car
