Its all there though. A solid zero mile car that is totally restorable. You would be freaked out how solid it is under all that mold.
Last I read, the "bomb proof" time capsule they stored the car in leaked, leaving the car submerged for years.

What was the point in this?
I went down and saw this car the other day. It was actually a belvedere. It looks way worse in person than it does in those pictures. The car was supposed to be a time capsule. The person that guessed the closest to Tulsa population in 2007 would win the car. The vault wasn't supposed to leak it was a surprise when they lifted the lid and the car was sitting fender high in water. Boyd Coddington was here for the unveiling. He said the car is completely unrestorable. Its a shame it would've been such a nice car.
