Downtown Providence, RI

We started in Providence, Rhode Island, walking the Green Mile. Actually, it was more like two and a half miles. The Green Mile is a downtown loop marked by a green line called the Independence Trail that weaves visitors through the cities history as they stroll through the buildings.

Every so often a painted marker on the ground appears with a phone number and an extension. You are told to dial the phone number, enter the extension, and (theoretically) a voice describes the significance of the location. However, due to some winter storm damage (not sure how the winter weather caused problems with the phone system . . .) the system needed updating. So, it didn’t work well for us.

1962 Wagon Gadsen, AL **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Willys Wagons • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2200.

This runs and drives.

“This is a 1962 Willys Jeep with the original in-line six cylinder engine, manual trans, and 4WD. it runs and drives great. I also have every receipt for everything that has been done to the truck since 1980. My plans were to cut it down and make a street rod out of the body, but I just can’t bring myself to cutting it up. Would make an excellent farm truck, hunting truck, or project for restoration. Asking $2,200 OBO”
