And I use a small LED flashlight for that trip to the boys room. My Toes thank me every morning for not kicking things harder than them!

You use one of those small LED lights too, Rod? That 93 Grand Marquis is one I bought over Blacksburg way about 4 years ago. Needed a starter. Figured $400 was a fair price.

Evening Matt and no worky here today.
$400 was a good price if you have already got a few years out of it.
The LED is one of the cheap little keyring light they give you at events.
Perfect at night and doesn't wake the wife and my toes can see to walk! LOL

I have a bunch of free small flash lights from Harbor Freight.
The Merc is still going
One of my better deals was a 1989LTD CV I got on Ebay. Was listed in Rocky Mount, VA . Was close enough so I could go see it before bidding on it. A guy from Mexico was high bidder. The seller and I knew that wouldn't happen, so I got it for the high bid of $225 It had a cracked windshield and cigarette burns on the front seats. We were stripping cars for a demolition derby guy, so we had a windshield and same color seats. Daily driver for son. Bought it in 2003 sold it this past Spring for $500.
Then there was the 1966 F100 that I bought of Ebay for $1. I was the only bidder. Felt sorry for the guy so I gave him $5. Cost me about $50 in truck and people food to go get it. We got parts off it that one son needed for his 66, then sold it for $275.
