Possible treasure ?

Me and the wife were sitting on our deck a couple hours ago when a man and woman pulled into our driveway on a 4 wheeler.He said he had noticed a couple of my 46's in the drive,and wanted to know if I would be interested in another flatty,of course I would.He said his father -in- law has a 1942,or a 1945 jeep he may want to sell.He said it has been buried in the back of a barn for 20 years,and the motor had been rebuilt before storing it.
   I'm going next week to look at it,I'm hoping for a ford!

Me and number one son went and looked at the possible treasure yesterday,needless to say,it wasn't the ford I was hoping for.What we found was a 47,buried deep in the back of a barn,minus a windshield frame.The body is iffy,and it is stuck in gear.It was pretty dark in the barn,so a real good inspection was out of the question,I'm waiting to hear from the owner what he wants for it.

It has a clear title according to the owner.

Haha! I never put much stock in anything that old,I'm pretty sure it will end up a parts jeep if I buy it.

It was buried beneath a ton of dirt and old wood flooring.The engine was covered with a tarp under the hood,pretty rusted and beat up,a parts jeep most likely.
