Too bad Miss Belvedere didn't survive in such good condition. Was 1975 really 50 years ago? sigh (I was 8) Check it out...... John The dream is dead, long live the dream.......😥

It didn't flood like with Miss Belvedere, but things still got wet/moldy. A lot of the letters/cards that were in there the envelope was damaged, but not the letters themselves. Sadly, very few put their full name on the letter itself so many remain a mystery as to who wrote them. Oh, and yes the hood of the Vega rusted. I wonder how the underside of it looks?

There was a Toyota corolla inside the pyramid on top of the capsule they took apart last year, it was a rust bucket when they removed it. Last edited by Dart 500; 07/06/25 09:01 AM.
