Okay, well they trailered the LC back to Idaho which is how they got it from Idaho to Utah to begin with. Somewhere in one of the videos Alan said that he knew where there was a good LC body and he was going to swap it out before taking it back to Utah and trying to roll it again

I think my daughter's Ford is fixable though not to look pretty again, but only if the engine isn't damaged from running upside down for we don't exactly know how long. I have serious doubts that her engine is any good now. Just because it started up and ran okay for a little while doesn't mean the bearings/crank aren't damaged and it won't seize up or start knocking in a few miles or days or weeks. But I guess I'm some sort of scrooge for thinking that way
