This is pretty cool. They buried a brand new gold-over-white Plymouth Belvedere in a time capsule back in 1957, and it will be raised from the ground tomorrow. More information here: - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER, including a streaming webcast. They say it was wrapped in waterproof material, so it'll be interesting to see what kind of condition it's in. I really hope it's in good condition, though I'm sure most of you disagree because you seem to dislike American cars so much.

Bummer. The valut didn't hold up. The car is ruined.

Yeah, that really made me sad. I just hope that they made the vault holding the Prowler (they buried in 1997) watertight and stuff. They'll be opening that one up in 2037, I believe.

Such a shame the car didn't survive, nice idea though!
