Miss Violet

 



Once again, this was sketched from a photo taken by @mozarts_ride.  On Instagram he says:

1941 Dodge Military Jeep/truck... I spotted "Miss Violet" while visiting Nevada.. She's in fair shape, but rests in an amazing location. You could tell she had been driven hard and put up wet. While she may not travel the roads again, she rest in a nice location for all to enjoy.... 😎 "The Dodge WC series, sometimes nicknamed 'Beeps' were a prolific range of light 4WD and medium 6WD military utility trucks, produced by Dodge / Fargo during World War II...Together with the 1⁄4-ton jeeps produced by Willys and Ford, the Dodge 1⁄2‑tons and 3⁄4‑tons made up nearly all of the light 4WD trucks supplied to the U.S. military in WWII – with Dodge contributing some 337,500 4WD units over half as many as the jeep....
