Artifact Condition: |
Vehicle appears to be inverted. All four wheels are present and look to have pneumatic tires. The fuel tank is clearly seen and has a large hole in it which has allowed it to be filled with sand. The vehicle muffler can be seen midway on the left side of the image. Strangely the rear chassis appears to run under the axel. Small bits of debris can be seen coming out from under the vehicle. None is discernable except possibly it had a rear tire rack. |
