It looks like it was saved AFTER it went through the crusher! Apparently, its a beloved prop at a historic Route 66 greasy spoon/tourist trap: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delgadillo's_Snow_Cap_Drive-In 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFranklin Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Yes speculate all you wish. My speculation is based on Route 66 history and its heyday in the fourties & fifties when the clown car was saved from the crusher. A '36 Chevrolet was worth next to nothing back then but made a great roadside attraction in some merchant's mind, or maybe a mechanical clown's! It is all speculation, but that car wasn't abused recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
