looky

i stand corrected, good eye.

As I recall, the car is 2-tone [Foose would love it] copper and white.

Need more pictores!! Even though it probably would have been in better condition leaving it uncovered, above ground, in the rain, for 50 years, this is still interesting.

you gotta admit though, the car sits up nice.

While I don't want to change the momentum of this thread too much, it seems to me, with Plymouth disappearing in 2001, the Plymouth [particularly the 57, 58 and 59] values are going to go through the roof.

If you feel this is too far off the beaten path, mods, feel free to delete this post, although I feel it is pertinent.

I also think, win, lose or draw, many [including myself and my 11 year old daughter] are going to be surprised by the condition of the Belvedere.

Still pretty exciting. I can't believe how many guys on here called it before they lifted the lid. I guess back then they were really concerned about the chances of a nuclear war. Too bad it wasn't an above ground tomb. Oh well not everything I have done has gone along as planned either

I really can't wait to see what happens when to covers coe off

Bag or no bag,50 years...
...and how many under water?
I'm not putting much faith in a 1957 era plastic bag anyway.

I hope I'm wrong,I really do.
Anybody remember the 73 RR out of the lake in MCG?
Heck it was a 50 footer, but up close...

it doesnt look opened in this one...

I'm guessing it got torn on the fin sometime when the water level rose enough that it wanted to float.

Or this one:

Too bad they didn't have today's tech so they could've put a camera in there with it, now that would've been cool to see.

Actually I'm surprised the bag is even over the car, How good was plastics technology 50 years ago? Perhaps it's UV that rots plastic but I've seen stuff that's been in the sun for a while just crumble to dust.

Perhaps that 50 year old plastic did start to fall apart in just the few days worth of sunlight exposure. Plastics have come a loooong way in 50 years!

Hard to say.

Hmmmmmm

I'd say Grandma looks none to pleased with local Law Enforcements liberal use of Camera Cell Phones

when are they gonna pull off the darn plastic!!!??? it looks pretty bad...dan
