Jack, Keep up the fight. I was at an IMOA convention(International Mercury Owners Assoc) and a fellow from New Jersey telling the story of his younger days when he and a friend used to drive to work at the Prudential(he lived in the Boston area then) building and had his car stolen. 30+ years later the cops knock on his door and ask him if a rusty toolbox was his. He opens it to find a wadded up raincoat and several tools all rusted together into one tool. He says he thinks he had them in the car when it was stolen. So he asks where it was found, it had been buried in a construction mound around a building for 30 years and when the building was coming down the mound was taken out and the "smashed" car was found, but the toolbox sort of survived. My wife and I cried, laughing with him telling the story, then my wife said, did they find Hoffa in it also? We laughed even more.

Thanks for the story -- many of my friends here in the Lehigh Valley who know about my search tell me that its more than likely still in the area - whatever is left as was the case with your friends car ................And maybe Jimmy Hoffa is in my trunk ! ! !
