Nice!

Jan 0290: A couple of days after the mudslide, he told me to be at his garage at 4AM... Jan: “I was visiting a scrapyard for some parts for an older excavator and found her there. The engine was blown, the transmission was missing, and she was full of rust and dents,” Mike explained. “I can’t explain why, but I felt really sad about it going in the crusher, so I bought her and have been fixing her up over the last year, in my spare time.” Mike clambered in and started the truck.
