End of an era...
Author: drgwfan1

Driving around work today, I saw this demolishing of what used to be a Basken-Robbins and then a Chinese Restaurant.  The folks up in the High Desert area will know where these are at.  Could be some value in the wheels and trucks for those crazy enough to have a need.

Would the window glass not be worth salvaging?

One would think, also the running gear.

This is 21st Century America. We don't salvage, we smash and throw away - disposable and all that y'know.

It looks like a serious fire did the job first.

Topfuel would know but my guess is US Army hospital car.  As the windows are flexing in the pictures, they're probably Lexan or metal.
