Horror: Tulsa’s Burried 1957 Plymouth Belvedere Soaked In Water!
We’re pretty sure that most of you will have heard the story:On June 15, 1957, Tulsa Town buried a brand-new Plymouth Belvedere along with along with several other artifacts in a cement vault, as part of a contest in which the person who most closely guessed the city’s 2007 population would win the Belvedere on June 15, 2007.

Just two days before the ’57 Plymouth’s scheduled exhumation, Tulsa Town decided to open up the vault’s lid. To everyone’s misfortune, the workers discovered several feet of standing water and indications that the car had been submerged. While the condition of the tailfinned Belvedere remains uncertain because the car was covered in cosmolene, a metal preservative then wrapped in plastic, the equation -’57 Plymouth, half a century and several feet of water, is definitely not promising.

there still might be hope, though, lets hope it still looks like a car when it is uncovered.
In the trunk were lots of artifacts and 10 gallons of fuel in case the internal combustion engine wasn't around in 2007. LOL

There's been so much rain there these past few months they're lucky the car hadn't floated away.
