Some type of electric lock & key fob. I've got no suggestions though.

Thats what im doing on my hot rod shaving the locks and keeping the handles but its a 1948and the handles are sooooo cool and i needed to leave a lil chrome down the side of the car being i removed most of the other trim.

I will also be shaving the lock/filling the button hole on the handle.

I'm gonna have door poppers with an emergency manual opener in case something goes wrong.

Just use a power lock setup and a decent alarm system that will remotely lock and unlock the doors. As a safety, I think I might hide a set of contacts for each door lock motor somewhere under the hood so that, if the alarm were to fail, you could unlock the doors.
