Cool info, thanks for the post. Amazing no on has come across it and stripped it. Goes to show what a wasteland the desert is. As was said looks well preserved, hopefully someone who can do something with it saves and restores it.
On a side note. I still regret not attempting to buy a rusted out Original 1968 Mustang GT500 I came across in 1990 or so, it had been sitting outside since the son had left for Vietnam and died there. It was in the middle of no where as I had gotten lost getting off a highway off ramp looking for fuel for my 67 Mustang 390BB Fastback. I found a gas station and asked about it and the guy told me about the son and Vietnam and said I should offer her some money for it and get rid of it so it would not be a constant reminder to her. But I did not. Hindsight. (They sell for 50-100k now and even a frame with a serial number is worth 8k or so.) I also came across what I believe is a complete WWII fighter engine in a small shop corner in NZ when I was living there and it was in excellent condition , I wrote all the numbers down from it and meant to pursue it further but have no idea where I wrote the info.
