I’m glad this one had a badge on the front, or else I wouldn’t have had a clue what I was looking at.
The unusual looking vehicle is a Coleman, and was photographed in Colorado – which is apparently where it was manufactured. But that’s about all I know about it.

As for the Coleman, you got me. Good find, though.

a friend told me he drove them when he was in the airforce, I think the white things are deer antlers.
