Supposedly a WWI vehicle. No other info. I have to clear out an acre of junk at an old farm here in AZ. I wonder if this is worth saving...

Looks like a WW2 Dodge Command Car-go to:

Don't know if that one's worth restoring or not.

Doesn't look like there is much there to salvage, but who knows what's in the junk piles...

If you've got the original power wagon drivetrain it's probably worth restoring. If not, there's several military historic vehicle associations that you could post with and sell the body and parts to a restorer.

Save it. Those bodies are fairly rare. Just a few usable parts and you'd get some decent $$. You won't get rich, but it'd probably be worth your efforts.
