Got to wonder what happened with these cars?
Steve Dolan: John Blotnick the last I heard was they were going to make a whole car with a bunch of parts. Don Crimmin: John Blotnick They couldn't save the two cars whole, so they took what they thought were the more important parts. They might be able to be made into a parade float but nothing more. I suspect the pieces will be quietly carted off and cut up sometime in the future.
