 Thanks for all the great comments and support.  I guess it is clear now that 15375 will not go to a museum, the highest bidder, the lowest bidder, parts, and no, I won't be buried in her.  What a great outcome.  At some point Celeste, my daughter, will inherit!

I am also looking forward to teaching her some of the things that absolutely must be known in order to keep the JH running.  Like how to fix leaks, jumper wires, jury-rig switches, plugs, connectors.  How to read wiring diagrams.  What to worry about and what not to sweat.  What to carry in the boot, and why.  Critical levels, noises, readings, tools, parts, care.  Rust prevention.  And then there's the engine.....

She already knows about the message board, obviously...

Should be fun and will test our patience, compatibility, and persistence.  Loving father, John.
