ArnZ Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 "Miss Belvedere" When the car was buried, there was a contest held to see who could guess the population of Tulsa in 2007. The winner or his heirs will be the proud owners of the rusting hulk and a $100 savings account, which will have grown to $1200 by now. The entrants were recorded on microfilm and were encased in the time capsule that was buried with the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_furious Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Supposedly, an attempt is being made to clean it, but the site for the company doing the work is devoid of news or photos of the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savageskaterkid Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I think the guy ended up selling it to a museum or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoNkEyT88 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Maybe if they were trying to preserve them they would store them in a DRY place.. lol.. unless it looked like that when they put it in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Purple240zt Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 They said the lid may have gotten cracked by heavy equipment running over the top of it when they were doing an addition to the courthouse. Real shame IMO. Prowler is in a vault pumped full of argon thats not totally buried (lesson learned?) Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
