ASC Autrey Rd. Facility gutted

Post by MIKE'SVO »

I stopped by the old ASC facility yesterday and the entire interior is getting gutted. All of the paint booths/exhaust equipment, baking areas are getting turned into scrap metal. The end to the facility that modified the Capris is near.

That's too bad. What is being done with the facility? It the whole place getting scrapped, or is the building being refurbished?

Honestly, everytime I go to look at the building I have a hard time remembering where it is. Maybe 'casue I can spell the name of the street.

During the day

I'm guessing you need to drop by there during the day when the guys are working in the building. They have a lot to still take down and scrap, so maybe they'll be there another couple of weeks. There is nothing left inside besides the equipment and some old garbage computers. I saw that all of the Vipers parts that were left in the back are now gone. They were all damaged but left behind when ASC left.
