You hear stories of interesting finds in barns, garages, fields, and woods but you never think there might be something of interest to you nearly in your own backyard........
Vic was discussing Jeeps with a neighbor recently and Jim told him he had an old Jeep in his woods. Apparently it had been there a number of years and wasn't in the best of condition. He didn't know much about it but if Vic had a use for it, it was free for the taking
.
One evening this past week Vic, Joe, Dan and I took a drive up the hill to have a look. It turned out to be a 1957 and had a few parts that Vic felt he could use on the 1955. The next afternoon the boys brought her out of the woods and to our home.
The tank on the back is a maple syrup reservoir that has been in Jim's family for a few generations. That will stay in the family.
