Tulsa Buried Car Already Opened

OK, but slightly back ON track. Snow (P-38)is a LOT drier than water( that poor Plymouth)

 

With global warming, according to Al Gore, they will uncover themselves shortly.

 

HAHAHAHA

 

Well there you have it, get out of the house and rev up those V8s so the planes can be recovered quicker!

 

Wait till the price of scap iron rise's again...............and cash it in.

 

I posted this on another thread, but as fast as the HAMB moves, I thought I should post it here as well.

The un-bagging and official removal is tomorrow.

yea maybe jimmy halfe is in the trunk

 

Its a wonder it didnt break in half,,,Was that the back of the fin sticking out from under the cover? It looked pretty rough.....

 

They lifted it out, and put it back? IDIOTS! What if it only had one lift worth of integrity left in it, and it breaks the 2nd time?

 

Crab,
Tomorrow,meaning,Friday? You gonna get more pic's?

 

heres a pic

 

Ya know, it's like back in school. When you hoped someone or something would lift the sexy girl's skirt up

 

Yea Groucho,but i'm sure what's under the pretty girls skirt,is cleaner than that! Might smell the same though.

 

Now that is patina.

 

As for the outside sheetmetal, I think this might be a genuine case of "It'll buff out".
As for the interior and inside sheetmetal though...

 

even if its not in perfect shape its still going to be a fun event.i work on ROUTE66 and there where lots of cars running into town today...

 

I see they screened it off now.

Not looking too good. Doesn't it look like the trunk lid is rusted out/caved in?

 

Remember, the car that Bonnie and Clyde died in has made Hundreds of thousands of dollars just hauling it around and charging a buck or two to see it. I'll wait for it to be displayed at our county fair in a couple of years and take the grandkids to see it.
That's the smart way to cash in on this deal, no expensive restoration, just REAL patina generating income revenue.

That's so Number 2 which has been stored high and dry can be slipped in under cover after having a coat of gin-you-wine fine grain river mud smeared over it and the tarp placed on...

 

Anybody going to wanna try the Schlitz beer they put in the trunk? Should make ole boyd open one up and take a drink.

 

Take your shots now, cynics - I happen to know that Mopar is pristine under that sheet! Okay, I don't know, or care either way - but this is a pretty fun thread to read (I'm hooked). Thanks for the updates.

 

I could set up a small booth next to it and make a small fortune selling Tetanus shots...

 

How about the "Pig" that was buried under ground at the second HAMB drags.............ahhhh......50 years later & Tman will be famous.

 

Now they know how Geraldo felt,when the vault was empty!!!LOL

 

You know.. in those last shots. You can see the tarp is "wet" and stuck to the car.. but I think the white paint stripe can still be plainly seen on the side. Interesting... might bode for the exterior being a little better than we think. Hard to say.

 

At least there will be something worth seeing.

 

HELL YEAH! someones gotta try the shlitz! that would be the best part about the event!!!!

 

Yeah ..like this
