Old Pre-WWI Wooden Wagon

This old wooden wagon goes way back in time and over the years various wood parts have been stolen by people passing through the campgrounds where the remains are located.

The caretaker would have liked to have restored the thing but decided he would rather let someone who knows what they're doing come and make an offer -- probably $40 or so would be accepted by the caretaker, something to pay for the time and effort to bring the buyer up, help load it on a vehicle, and help cart it away.

Someone needs to put something on it to keep the weather off of it.

"Someone needs to put something on it to keep the weather off of it."

When I first saw it the thing was in better condition. I had wanted to rebuild the wheels using slave labor provided by High Schools in the area but their wood working shops are generally all closed down due to the lack of money.

I understand what your saying,it would be ok to do modern repairs if someone wants it for a conversaion piece. But if someone wants it for value if it has any I don't know, it all depends on who wants it. It would de-value it it modern day repair was done on it.

That's definitely a relic, and as Mobiltec says very restorable. A knowledgeable collector could probably even date it.

Very restorable piece there. Let us know when it goes up on Ebay.
