Thanks to all who posted pictures! Sad that the car didn't make it. Looking forward to seeing how it cleans up. Surly it will look better. This has been quite an experience. I wasn't able to make the trip to Tulsa but I was able to meet some of the folks that were heading there from out east. There was a Car show / welcoming party held in St. Louis for them Monday the 11th. Super nice group of people and it was neat to see so much enthusiasm. A couple guys were there all the way from England! Lets hope the Prowler fares better in 2048.

I'm sad to see such a beautiful car sit like that. Too bad they didn't think it through better back in '57. That plastic kept the car moist between floods. I feel bad for the people that were there in '57 more than anyone else. What a letdown. It was a cool idea and props go to the citizens of Tulsa for the whole event and original idea.

After seeing how well the time capsule held up under all that water I hope they decide to exhume the Prowler, remove it from the concrete vault, place a welded steel lining in the vault, then seal her up. LOL I think it is amazing that we have another buried car in Tulsa and love that it is a mopar! I am going to start eating better and exercising. I want to be here in 2048!

Hello all. I happened to find your forum after doing so searching on the net to get other people's opinions of how this has all unfolded. Great site you have here.
Anyway, I just wanted to post a link of a rebroadcast while the car was being unearthed for those of you that had trouble with the live feeds.

Organizers should have known enough to "Avoid the Boyd". To deter any more circus that may follow, they should gracefully lower that poor car back into the vault, slide the lid on and give her a decent burial, let her rest where she started life
It seems like the 'proper' thing to do. I cant see much gained by leaving the car out. put a nice memorial explaining the events etc.
