Jeep buried in sand dune for 40 years is finally unearthed

(AP) — A Jeep buried in sand in Massachusetts 40 years ago has finally been dug out. It had been stored in a garage that was long ago buried by shifting sand dunes. Munsnuff says he snagged a few souvenirs from the barely recognizable wreckage, including the Jeep's hub caps and door handles. The Jeep had once been painted white with a green interior. Work crews early Friday pulled out the rusted remnants of what John Munsnuff says was once his family's "beach buggy" at the home they've long owned near Ballston Beach in Cape Cod.
