Damn Crash if you would have just slapped the old lady at Barnwell then all would be good. Glad you and ur son are ok. Tonka can be rebuilt. I can't offer much other than moral support and encouragement. Let me know buddy.

I truly am sorry my friend, if there are any odds and end parts you need, make a list, no joke, Ill do my best to get as much to you as possible, no charge. Keep us posted buddy, we gotta get her up and running again asap 
I appreciate it.
We'll see what happens.
I alternate back and forth.
Yep.
First time out since I got it back.
5 months without 4wd
Going slow..
Intake facing rear.
Yup
Thanks, man. We'll see what needs to be done.
Tools, I have.
Friends/manpower, not so much.
UPDATE:
engine will turn by hand.
um...thats about it.
water everywhere.
plugs were wet.
guess its good the electrical went out....I would have started it wet, and locked up the whole thing.
guess its gonna sit until I get back from Vegas.
Pics up in a few hours when I get to work.

Awsome so the motor isn't broken just really wet, get a hair dryer and start drying everything, take the computer out of engine compartment and put it in the house, the stereo amp is under the steering colomn put that in the house. Take all your heater ducting out and see if there is water blocking the air path in one of the tubes.
slow process of drying everything good news is it can be done I have dried out my 93 4runner after I bathed it up to the guages in the interior. I literally tore it down to nothing layed it out in my basement and kept blowdrying everything.
The diffrence between a huge puddle and a pond is....... Lillypads!
