Surprise!!

SO I am driving down the road and what to my wandering eyes should appear?--- Let's see who can guess... It's red/blue, has serious rust on the rear fenders, big tires, Black rims, has FTE stickers on the back window, has been a non 4x4 for several years (broken front end) and has not run for a couple. Looks like a lot of furry critters could have moved in? Could have a locked up motor by now.

What ever could it be


Need another hint?
Located in Dawson, NE outside a repair shop, 1/2 as block off the main highway through town.

Whoa......was it a real sighting or were you just imagining. Could it be a Big Red? Probably not with blue on it. Maybe it was a Jayhawk!

It's no fable but a certain person could have stopped and said hello as he was traveling thru said town on the day in question or at least called maybe but maybe he was so inthralled with seeing Big Red it slipped his mind laughs
