Here is the pic I was refering to from CNN. It shows what looks like the little square fan guard that is bolted to the rad support in place of a fan shroud on 6-cyl cars. But it could be a trick of the eye.

Car was in only 12 feet of water at the boat ramp....gives me the creeps just to think of the people who took out their boats the next day and went right over top not having a clue.

I often wander how many cars are under water with people still in them. How sad.

One time CUB pitcher Milt Pappas had a similar experience back here in 1987 in Wheaton Il.
His wife dispappeared in 1982 and no one knew what happened to her.Vanished off the face of the earth.
5 years later,a retention pond right next to the Fire Dept. &amp; only 3 blocks from his home,revealed the top of a cars roof during a drainage.
Sadly,they found she took a wrong turn one night and drove right into it.

So....Milts new (young!!!) girlfriend moves into his house less than 8 months after his wife went missing in 1982, moves the missing wifes stuff out, Milt has no idea what happened to his wife until 1987, car is found with the stickshift in park and ignition off..which the coroner and sheriff found strange

If my wife disappeared legitimately I would not be picking up a new women 8 months later and having her move in and moving my wife's stuff out..my wife is truly my best friend..could not so casually forget about her after 8 short months it would take me a long time to forget about her especially if she vanished w/o a trace...I would still be a wreck and trying to find out what happened.

Call me skeptical on this one..

This summer my door would not open at the gas station-heard the latch break..uuhh ooh..had to climb up out of the seat, cross the console and work myself out of the passenger side..man it was hard and I work out every day and in good shape and fit....could see why these people drown with water rushing in..+ panic setting in, dark..
