This Jeep is just up the road from where I live in Santa Ponsa Mallorca. It has been there at least 10 years. Such as shame that a great piece of American engineering and history has just been left to rot away.

One rugged terrain vehicle I am wishing to have and bring it home to my country and convert it into a 4 meters long transport machine together with Humby. I wonder if I can find junked and bring it home to the Philippines.

Hope you find one

Fabulous capture kevin, great find!! I know the people in the Philippines love this! I saw many converted jeeps called "Jeepneys" in there - Those are the most form of public transport in the Philippines. I have a Jeepney photo in my gallery too. Thanks for sharing, kevin:))

Thank you Daisy, Yes great form of transport, Would love somebody to restore it, It's been there now for 10 years or more :(

I meant...the most common form of public transportation in the Philippines. geez, can't even type, LOL

Lol Daisy :)

I love to find old cars... Rust is a plus for me. I love to see what I can make the sunlight do with the rust or if I can find the right abstract shot to please my eye.

Nice to know your ideas, Shame this one is wasting away though

A sad but beautiful photograph. Yes, it is a shame that the Jeep has been left to rot away. Imagine the stories it could tell.

Yes it's a shame, Thank you Carol
