Seems there is good, logical source for why water may have collected in the crypt. It is buried under a park or lawn. Over the years with constant watering - water was bound to collect in any open void in the ground. It wasn't so much sealed as much as closed. I don't see any flexible seal on the top of the walls.

It was a good idea...however, by the obvious evidence, the execution was less than adequet.

[Teufelhunden]

I called it [/Bob and Brian]

Sucks to see all that water

[Brandon W.]

rust bucket..all it is going to be now...which means what? yes thats right folks. this car is worth as much as every other 50's rust pile out there..$50 at the scrap yard..

[scaleracer]

that sucks it was proably a nice car but a wise idea to bury it underground!

[jbiscuit]

they should have buried it behind a brick wall in the courthouse...we ran a story about this in one of the mags I work on and I could see that coming from a mile away that it was going to be a rust pile

[07ROUSHSTG3]

The Giant plie of rust gets the covers pulled off this Friday.....I can't imagine much is left to look at now....

[BOSS LX]

Wow!

On the plus side, it was only a Plymoth Belvedere!

[ProjectCamaro]

Idiots, I can't believe they didn't seal the thing.

[wheelsofsteel]

Well, 50 years ago that is what they considered "sealing" it. Technology is alot different now. Look at it as if it was basement walls of a 50 year old house. Those old concrete basement walls form cracks and leak water into the basement. Pretty much the same situation.

Anyways, what do you call something that is gold, has fins and in 4 walls filled with water??? :D

[DynoTom]

"While the car was up in the air it gave people a chance to inspect the damage 50 years underwater could do. Hot rod builder Boyd Coddington from cable's “American Hot Rod” came to Tulsa to take a look. He will get a chance to clean up the car between the Friday unearthing at noon, and our live special Friday night at 7."

I'm sure Boyd can really "clean this car up" just fine in a few hours.....:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

[Poncho]

I can't wait to see what it looks like tonight. You know it's gonna be damn rough...

[pOrk]

He think he will be able to get it running! LOL

If they sealed the motor as good as they did the ' time capsule ' that ***** is rusted SOLID

[300pny]

This is about as exciting as Heraldo's vault

Watch they'll make another time capsule and bury another car. :thumbsup

[hotshift13]

A good power wash and that thing may not be that bad. Look at the front bumper, they cleaned a spot ad it still looks decent.
