I have been working on this old $50 GPW that I bought about 5 years ago. Tub floor is pretty well gone, someone covered the rear panel with sheet metal, same whith the floor. Took off the layer of metal on back panel and it still has the ford script on it.Frame # is GPW 21213. Anyway I have about $80 into it, Walmart camo spray paint. Just wanted something to look at when I'm in the back yard. Just hated to see it just rust away,so I think it's kind of cool! |

I like it Rick! Much better than a flower planter IMO :)

Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out,
shouting "...holy cow, what a ride!" |

I'm going to take a 2X4 and make a bumper and then I'm going to make an anti-decapitation device and hang a humming-bird feeder on it. I'll cover it back up in the winter. Man, the weather is sure nice here in Oregon, right now! |
