F-14 on the side of the road

[Billy54]

This all takes place on the freeways in the Los Angeles area.

 

Yesterday at approximately 11.00 am, I am travelling south on the 14 freeway and I merge onto the southbound 5 freeway and proceed for a few miles when I notice a pickup with a trailer parked on the right side of the 5 freeway in the emergency lane. On the trailer is the cockpit section, without the nose, of a Tomcat completer with canopy.  Now I'm alone in the car, on the left lane cheating a little on the speed limit and can only really get a brief glimpse of this, but it definitely was an F-14 cockpit section.  I don't know where it was going and I'm wondering if anyone here has more information on this.
