I wonder if it was taken to a museum?

Probably still around somewhere, would be my guess? Who knows? Maybe just parts were taken? and was left where it was. Might of gotten reburried by an excavator or ground up in its tracks? If no record is found most of it might still be out there.🤣 Sounds like a work site? I doubt they would of let some egghead poke around for more than a day or two, before kicking him out.🤣
