Oh, Moll. I have watched a beloved vehicle with countless memories being loaded - brutally - onto the back of a scrapper's lorry, and that was bad enough.
You must have fought back the tears, if you did try to fight them.
Possibly the old Ford will find a new home and a new use, perhaps as spare parts, or maybe a dog kennel as one of my friends did. He took the wheels off, settled it onto a pallet and wired the doors open. His dogs love it in there, they have old blankets and cushions for comfort.
'Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.' John 14:1-4 Gone, but not permanently. God bless you Molly.
A beautiful day for it. Dear old Tranny is as blue as the sky.
