It might, but if not insurance will pay for another starter and another Ford... and anything else that burned up.

My friend's dad's (Jim) shop is gone that's to an F250 that could cross circuits all by itself.

Jimmy bought a new '70 (I think) C/30 wrecker when he got out of the service. Used and used it, eventually sold to Dave's Body Shop. My friend who is younger than that truck was at an old junk yard where the man died and his son is piece by piece liquidating it all. My friend went to buy an S10 Blazer back seat, through Craigslist. Whle talking he catches a glimpse of a 67-72 with a wrecker rig among the dense stash of vehicles. He says to the guy, "I bet that wrecker says Dave's Body Shop on the doors and the PTO handle is a connecting rod". Yep, it did! My friend is negotiating the sale and will get in shape (it's all there) to give back to his dad... Jim!

EDIT: Sorry if all this somehow relates to prior posts
