Interesting video

I guess in 1957 they thought burying a car in a concrete vault would be a good way for their time capsule celebration 50 years later. I was surprised it wasn't just a big pile of rust. I don't think any modern car put up like that would be able to be raised by straps and a crane. I had heard the car was bought and sent east by a " rust stopper" company for restoration with their products. Don't recall hearing anything else about it other than Boyd's crew all got sick from handling the car.
 
Kinda looks like Christine after the fire. Note in the beginning, the fuel door is on the driver side, at the end it's on the passenger side.
 
I went to that..."Tulsarama" Drove from Ontario Canada to Buffalo NY then flew from Buffalo to Kansas city then drove 6hrs to Tulsa oklahoma... I'll post some pic's tomorrow.
 
I noticed that too, soon after this car came to light, Boyd died. Wonder where this car is today, stupid people, think that a car will last buried in concrete and no water will get in there? Stoopid!!
 
if i remember right,i think i read in a mag that someone was going to restore it.
 
There was a 4 page write up in Old Cars Weekly a few years back,way to rusty to restore.By the time you removed all the rust there wouldnt be anything left.
