The block heater in our 98 Ranger didn`t seem to work over nite, it did start but wasn`t real happy about it. It was in an uninsulated garage and we haven`t used it since Dec so I was happy it started.
Last nite the master brake cylinder must have gone bad in the Mercury, the petal went right down to the floor. It was an excited drive home.....

I think it`s either an old Model A or a 20`s truck that`s nearby.
I didn`t bother, it maybe a problem to convince the woman that owns the land that it isn`t worth tons of $$$.....

Sounds like a cool truck Morris. The bad thing about trucks like that, is they arent usually worth a pile of coin, unless they are in pretty good shape and complete.

Even if it was free, which I`m sure it won`t be, it`s not worth the bother of trying to retrieve what`s left of it out of the water.

Well it all depends whats all there. I know my uncle thrives on getting stuff like that, in the end he has 4 or 5 half vehicles and has more then enough parts for a full one.
