The mud wagon was the workhorse of stagecoaches in the American west. They were simplistic, durable, and an economical mode of transportation. This project is a family heirloom that is being put back together for a grandson of the family. Building and restoring horse drawn vehicles often involves such vehicles of importance to the next generation.
