In 1957, the city of Tulsa buried a new Plymouth Belvedere in a "waterproof" time capsule, it was opened 50 years later to mark the 100th anniversary of the city. The car had 4 miles on it.

The time capsule was far from waterproof.

It would have looked better if it had been parked in a garage in Phoenix. [mop]

That's pretty much what I see when I look at any old car.

Dang it, Tulsa. You had one job.

It was sitting in 4 ft of water when they uncovered it, bathtub rings showed it had been completely submerged at one time.

I’m thinking Elon Musk’s Tesla will show up somewhere looking like that some day.
