    Hi folks,
    This car has been buried in the desert behind my house in Ridgecrest, CA for decades. Does anyone know what it is? I'm guessing a 36-37 Lincoln Zephyr more door, due to the speedo in the center with glove boxes on both sides.

    It's on BLM land, and they think they own it. I'd love to have my buddy with the backhoe pull it out just to see what else is down there. Someone went to a lot of trouble just to bury this old car.

    There's glove box on both ends of the dash, right in front of the driver. It's symmetric, like a Lincoln.
     
  16. It will buff out.. A little touch up paint here and there at the most.........
