Donor Truck

got it all towed to the shop where the engine and trans will be pulled out for me. hooked up battery and jumper box and tried to start. The engine seems to be hydro-locked. this truck was a roll over and ended up on its side for an hour or more before the tow truck could show up. it is likely and hopefully the case of a little coolant or oil has seeped in and pulling the spark plugs and turning the engine over will solve the problem. I will likely know more by tomorrow. I hope i didnt waste $500.
