I just thought this was interesting in that it looks parked in the middle of nowhere. Of course, to be fair, Elko is in the middle of nowhere. That means that Ryndon is even more in the middle of nowhere.
“1951 Jeep Willys Wagon For Sale
No Engine, Transmission, or Transfer Case.
Buyer must pick up as I do not have a trailer to haul it.
$350 Or Make offer”
If that was the original paint and its live in Nevada all its life this could be a really good deal for a project!
That’s where Jeeps belong, in the middle of nowhere. I wish I were closer. There’s no rust, and only a few dents to iron out.
It’s about a ’53, and I don’t think this was an original color in ’53. But that proves that someone cared for this Wagon at one point in it’s life. I prefer factory power trains, but this would be a good candidate for an engine transplant.
Oh, I see a hitchin’ post in the background in the second photo. This must be downtown Elko……
