Artifact History:	Unknown

Artifact Condition:	This vehicle appears to have hit the seabed on the front passengers side. That side is collapsed with a large gouge taken out of it which lays in front. Part of the front grill remains. The fire wall is present as well as some of the windshield side braces. All interior aft of the firewall seems to be missing but the rear end of the car is present including the rack for the spare tire. Driver's headlight is still mounted. The wheels may have been wooden spoked as all seem to now be a metal ring draped over the axel ends.

Additional Information:	There is an interesting cylindrical tube lying next to the drivers fender. It looks too small to be the fuel tank, *2600 lbs
