Even the windows rusted. ha ha
That thing is such a mess Be interesting to see what comes of it in the next few yars. I hope Boyd Coddington keeps his hands off of it and doesn't try to turn it into some hot rod and give his guys 3 days to do it.

It looks like the freaking titanic. Cool idea though. Isn't that the style car from the movie Christine?

Re: 1957 Plymouth Belvedere un-earthed from time capsule
 

Is the car all rusty or is it just nasty? If you look at the pic of the bumper it looks like someone washed part of it off and it looks brand new.

Do you think better drainage would've helped? All hope is lost the Schlitz was ruined. :(

Re: 1957 Plymouth Belvedere un-earthed from time capsule
 

they even tried turning it over

Re: 1957 Plymouth Belvedere un-earthed from time capsule
 

Wow... They would have been better off putting it into a garage and it would have came out in better shape!

Looks like they didnt know how to seal containers back then. I was expecting the container to be sealed air tight and the car to come out looking mint like the day it rolled out of the dealer. Man was I surprised. That sucks.

Hahaha, I love that it's just filled with water. Wonder how much they budgeted to restore it once it came out? ;D

Re: 1957 Plymouth Belvedere un-earthed from time capsule
 

That car would have been far better off just sitting in a barn for the last 50 years.

Re: 1957 Plymouth Belvedere un-earthed from time capsule
 

Whats even better is there was a contest. I bet the person that won. Is going shit my car is all messed up. But yes it could clean up nice or be all rusted.

Re: 1957 Plymouth Belvedere un-earthed from time capsule
 

Eh?

Re: 1957 Plymouth Belvedere un-earthed from time capsule
 

There was a contest for whoever could guess the population in 2007. the person (or their heirs) with the closest guess wins the car, and $100.

Re: 1957 Plymouth Belvedere un-earthed from time capsule
 

haha what a deal.

Re: 1957 Plymouth Belvedere un-earthed from time capsule
 

i bet the guy who now won is shitting his pants at the pile of crap he just inherited!!!
