Classic Car Unearthed in a Nuke Proof Time Capsule


In an article on Yahoo! News, via the AP, it was announced that in "Tulsa, Okla. - A concrete vault encasing a 1957 Plymouth Belvedere buried a half-century ago may have been built to withstand a nuclear attack but it couldn't beat back the natural onslaught of moisture. At a Friday ceremony complete with a couple of drum rolls, crews removed a multilayered protective wrapping caked with red mud, revealing a vintage vehicle that was covered in rust and wouldn't crank. "

Oh this truly IS classic. Suppose that there HAD been a nuclear disaster that all life had been erradicated and billions and billions of years from now, some wandering aliens discover the remains of our Styrofoam factory in space and work their way here to our planet. At least domestic cars would be presented TRUTHFULLY...thank god...what a hoot. Don't you bet the crew laughed when they burried that puppy. Bet when they get the trunk open they find some wild stuff the worker hid in there as a prank...hehehehe. The Belvedere was the coolest car of all time...what a great choice.

LOL it gets even better when they discuss the car...."There were a few bright spots, literally: shiny chrome was still visible around the doors and front fender, and workers were able to put air in the tires." Hmm...some tire manufacturer is going to get some UBER advertising out of this...if they are still in business.
