So....if we approximate the size 10'x 3'x 2" thick.....stainless steel (not rusted) This thing is well over a ton! How did it get there? How was it handled? Can you access this area with a rigging truck? Fork lift?
Not to mention the cost.... I have lots of questions....

Latest article I read said it was a prop leftover from some film shoot. Seems like we should have a definitive answer by now though....
