Yeah, but your relatives never have the same feeling for it.

What you have to do is build a big stone casket, put a Tyvek house liner
inside, put the truck in and fill the casket with sillica to keep any stray
moisture away.

The motor and tranny should be in separate canopic jars, embalmed in
cosmolene.  Appropriate incantations from the Book of the Dead and the
Chevy/GMC shop manual should be made by qualified clergy/mechanics (How
'bout it, PastorJon?) and the stone lid lowered and sealed, and the burial
site obscured.

This way, the truck will be preserved for a couple thousand years or so
until the archaeologists dig it up.

This will have the additional benefit of using up any remaining funds in
your estate, which your surviving relatives might otherwise use in
unwholesome ways.

There is an old Judeo-Christian tradition that on the judgment day those of
us not buried in the land of Israel will have to walk there underground
before being resurrected.  I think it wouldn't be so bad if I could drive my
oletruck instead of having to walk.
