But wouldn't you think that someone, after building that truck for nine years would have suggested running a hose down away from the engine??? A buddy of mine that I visit once a week or so is building a 1948 Willys with a complete running gear from a Ranger. I was looking it over the other day and just noticed that the cowl vent didn't have any drain. And the amazing thing was that it wasn't all rusted out. In 60 years you would have thought that they would have left the vent open a few times!

Ahh, but maybe I'm just doin' to much thinkin' about this. Fact is I think, I'll just poke that drain hose back in like it was meant to be and forget about it for the next 58 years. After all, I didn't find any traces of water on or in my 216 and I've been drivin’ her for more than two of those years!
