M715 - N TX
Spotted this one a few weeks ago. Bill and I stopped and took a few pic's. Don't know if it's worth anything, or even for sale. Since the property it's sitting on is slated for commercial use, I'm guessing this rig will have to get moved.
Anyway, thought I'd share, and if anyone is interested in this, we'll track down the owner.

GOODNESS!
Isn't there some Texas Law against Cruelty to Jeeps?
Can a person be shot for this?
From the distance, this rig looks moderately complete, but with enough time and $$$, anything can be restored.
I'd say its a keeper...but my FSJ Disease flairs up from time to time,
so it's hard for me to tell if a person should walk away or run home and bring back the trailer.

Janie, maybe if you want to track down the owner to horse whip him for letting a gem like that sit and rot. "Bailiff, whack his peepee!" -- Cheech & Chong's Big Bamboo.

Not a whole lot left of the powertrain, however. The STEERING column appears to be there! But I don't see an engine and who knows what's lying underneath the hood and what condition it's in.
If you have A LOT of time and $$$, you might be able to get it running again.
