Where are they?

About 12 years ago I traveled to Cripple Creek Colorado on Holiday and
stumbled onto a early 40's MB in an alley in the small Gold Mining town. By
looking at it I could tell it had been there for many years. I returned
three years ago and it was gone. It had been in my thoughts for many years
dreaming of this vehicle. The MB was in much pain. But I knew if it was my
own I would have been able to bring it back to life and back to its
original position. I live in Michigan and have never seen a MB to restore
in the area. I did find one but it was more rust than jeep. Well at least
he said it was a Jeep. But in Colorado rust didn't seem to be a problem.
Can anyone tell me if MB's are rare in the Western States? Or are they
plentiful. I want a basket case. Not one I have to pay much for. If there
are many to be found in the wild west then this guy would leave to look for
gold.
