What a shame.

Offer the guy $100 and drag it home. Then do a restore or rest-o-mod on it.

Heck, the chrome trim alone should be worth the time to drag it out of the field. It looks like it's untouched by corrosion.

yha its pretty solid for being from the northeast. it was last driven WAY before salt was used on the roads, lol. but being made of about 50% wood, it would take a damn good carpenter to restore that one.
