Found this today...

I swear I walked around the whole enchilada and found no markings I could make out. So what do you all think it is / was.

Well one thing is for sure! You will probably get a great price for it and maybe you could work out a package deal to pick up that fine, one owner, tow vehicle! LOL!, Ed

I love the pic and the positioning of the vehicles. You can imagine the guy parked, maybe had a flat tire, unhooked, went to town, then the TV died (or the owner) and it just sat there and rusted away.

Trailer looks to be in mint condition, but that tow vehicle will need some work.

Hook and Roll

Pump up the tires and hook and roll. That's what I would do!

it looks like the tow vehicle may need some "brightening up" as well! at least there are two spares on the hood

Looks like the TV needs a new receiver hitch and some tires. At least the wheels don't have wooden spokes. A/C probably wouldn't be necessary on the TV with the standard flow thru ventilation. LOL

Ha Ha you people crack me up! Maybe some of you could photo shop a ghostly situation of camper folks standing out side of it. Make a pretty good/neat picture. I think the old man that had a flat tire and died right there was a hoot. ha

I took a second look and.....

I'm now sure that the TV was used in one of those old B&W movies . Seems like I remember it from before the canvas and wood rotted off as the truck that Henry Fonda rode to California on in "The Grapes of Wrath." Ed

I recently read in a Craigslist ad that if you leave a trailer in the sun for a while those dents will fix themselves!!! Just a couple more years and it will be good as new! Easily restored as the normal Ebay ad would say.

Yeah, looks like there's a TV there for the taking, too!
