When we purchased the ranch, it had a bunch of odd stuff left behind and the War Wagon was one of them. As with antique guns, the newest part dates it to some degree and the War Wagon has Dodge Brothers wheels from the '20s and square nuts/bolt heads.

I'd given it to someone that intended to make a rustic planter of it but a move resulted in me reacquiring it. I've posted two photos: one of the WW as it rested at the ranch for who knows how many decades. The other is of it stripped of the wood bits and awaiting a media blast and fresh tires/tubes.

Once it's returned to viable rolling stock, I'll build up a square tube steel frame to make a flatbed with removable sides. I'll revise the tow bar so it doesn't tweak the drawbar on my tractor THAT'S BEEN SITTING AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 2 WEEKS AWAITING DELIVERY BECAUSE THEY CAN'T FIND THE THRID SCV KIT TO INSTALL.
