Thanks for of the all the replies people. I really appreciate it. He was a good buddy and miss him so much. The rest the the boys have yet to have a good sit down (beers and buddies was his favorite) and have a good celebration in Brad's honour. I'm from eastern Ontario to answer someone elses question. The barn is the only place we have to store it right now. We were thinkng of filling the crank case with oil till it came out of the valve covers to prevent valve seals from drying out. The truck body has no rust and the truck as a whole is in great shape. Our plans right now are to undercoat the crap out of it, put it up on blocks on the frame and put the tires in one of our houses to try and protect them till they are needed again in 8 yrs or so. I'm very touched with all the replies I got from you all and appreciate it. We are trying our best to help out his son and wife. We all are just as good a friends with his wife and family and we were with him. Not to add more sorrow to the story but his wife's father had a massive heart attack at Brad's wake and passed away. Just added more to what Brad's wife was already going through. My buddies as well as my wife and I were good friends with Brad's father in law too. It was alot to take for our small community. Cheers! Sid
