I live in Tulsa and I remember when they excavated the car, it was live on the news, when they removed the concrete slab and they saw the water in there with the car everyones heart sank, you could just feel the energy in the crowd subside. Eveyone thought that the car was rusted beyond repair. But I'm glad that they were able to make the car shine again.
There is a town in Louisiana named "Waterproof". When two fishermen from the town drowned the newspaper headline read;"Two Waterproof fishermen drowned". So I doubt Miss Belvedere would have faired any better even if it had been burried in "Waterproof" Louisiana.
My uncle bought a house with a barn in the back, he went through the big barn and found a 1968 dodge charger, it was cover with piles of trash , apparently the owner forgot he had it. the owner let him have it since his only child lived in Italy.
The first car I looked at to buy with my own money was a 57' Ply. Fury while in my Sr year of HS in 75. The guy wanted $50 for it. My brother took me to look at it in his 65' Ford Galaxie 500 running stock dual exhaust with glass pack mufflers and cragar rims at all 4 corners and G-60x15s on the rear. The guy showed me they car and just as he was starting it up the engine seized up. We checked the oil and the oil was like gunk. Other than my hand me down car the first car I ended actually buying was a 69' Ply Roadrunner.
the car WAS initially sealed. but there was construction near by in later years which resulted in the concrete being damaged, but it was decided that they were not going to open it up to repair it as its ment to stay closed until 2007. so it was not the 50's that ruined the car. this information is available on the websites dedicated to the car. for some reason the person who filmed this did not pick this fact up.
many months have past since I started watching this video. i fear the outside world may no longer be the same as when I started watching this video. soon this video will end and I will once again go into the daylight. 72 more months have past what I thought was the end was a different story that had nothing to do with that I clicked on. i am sure all my loved ones are dead by now and i have no choice to finish watching. i didn't know the second story was unrelated until i was 18 months into it. by then it was easier to continue on and see this through. please tell them of me.
Louis Laszlo that’s completely true because all the humidity from the rain went up and it rained again witch went back in the ground it ruined the car until they rebuilt it!!! And it wouldn’t have been so bad if it just rained on it!!! Most cars these days have to sit in the rain for a long time my grandmas old car sat out in the rain 15-20 years and it just had a few indinsions on the body and popped tiers!!!!
Years back I think a person was buried in a gold cadillac I remember my father talking about it when I was younger I don't know how true it is maybe you do nice video
fordsrule35 well back then it was brand new, there was so many of them. Its like seeing a toyota prius today. Many people back then had no idea these cars would be worth anything today

No... People thought those cars were a major hunk of junk even when they were new. All Chrysler products suffered that year, including Chrysler, Dodge, Imperial, Plymouth, and DeSoto. The '57 Plymouth had major MAJOR quality problems. For those who don't know, a Plymouth Belvedere was used in the movie Christine. Christine was a 1958 Plymouth Belvedere. The 1958 year had much better quality than the previous. And no, the Belvedere was not the top of the line Plymouth for 1957. It was the Plymouth Fury.
While the '57 Belvedere was de-rusted, after ten years the car has been determined as irreparable. It is going to be displayed in an Illinois museum but it is far from perfect. The photo of the shiny "restored" Miss Belvedere in the video is not the actual car. See the link to see it at auction in 2017. www.hemmings.com/blog/2017/06/28/after-10-years-of-de-rusting-miss-belvedere-finds-new-home-in-a-museum/
Well, was born in '52 and can tell y'all the technology at that time was what they did, concrete and tar. Times in the 60s were a less stressful, my weekly allowance was 25 cents, but I could buy a candy bar and a BIG 16 oz soda and have money left over. I got 50 cents for cutting neighbor's yard. Could fill up my car for 2 bucks. Then I got a job and got paid 1.65 an hour, WOW.
Windy Prime+ Loved ol Bernie Mac in there! "Look at my gammy over there! Hey gammy!!! (she flips him off) Oh if I had a brick I'd bust you in your head!" LMAO!
After about 07:00, it seems obvious to me that your video editor may be as nearly sleep-deprived as I am at the moment. I'm not even sure how to categorize this style of humor.. but the randomly generic inserts made me pee myself just a little. Kudos!
NavTheGamer I saw a old one in Duncan Oklahoma about four years ago it was nice to check eBay around the Oklahoma area even Texas too you might find one
I would like to find my old car, a 1956 Ford. Hopefully it would also contain the body of the "friend" who borrowed it and never came back or was found.
Why did they show a movie of a 1956 Plymouth? And since when was Plymouth ever considered a “luxury car“? And in 1957 the tape cassette had not been invented yet. What is the point of all this?
Rodger Watt they thought it was water tight they used a new brand of concrete that was being made in the area and over time cracks started to form it happens this was a community based event to promote businesses and local products making the town closer
edwoll77 here's a story I would like to tell you. Hundreds of years ago I'm believing it was in England. A king wanted a bridge built. A Mason said I will build you that bridge King. So the king let the Mason build in a bridge. After the bridge was completed the king did not think the bridge could withstand some years. So he told the Mason I'm not going to pay you for the building of this bridge for 50 years. The Mason lived and got his money. The bridge today is still standing and a few years ago they stopped driving over it.
4:06 / 4:10 and 5:38 shows Boyd Coddington who appeared to be making the winner announcement. He died in Feb 2008, only a few months after this event took place.
He’s English. We watch a lot of British shows on Acorn TV. They also pronounce a lot of vowels long. I chuckle when they pronounce schedule as shedule were we in the US say skedule.
Right!!!! I'm all done with my own time capsule... I've dug a big hole in the garden, buried my 1997 fiat punto 1.2 with alloys and sunroof and to make sure the find in whatever year someone does dig it up clarifies its mine, I've put one of my turds in a bag and left it in the glove box for DNA evidence....👍🏻 Please don't request the GPS coordinates I'm not telling, it's a secret!
And let that be a lesson to you, civil engineers. If it aint broke, break it and let EVERYBODY down. Somebody find the guy in charge of this and dig HIM out.

Shayne Rasnic
That would have made me sick to see that too. Ugggh
The car was rusted beyond repair and it wasn't restored. It was cleaned up to make it presentable and is now in a museum in IL.
Shayne Rasnic im from tulsa and i remeber. It was cool.
Good town. Don't spell it backwards.
Yeah, me too.
There is a town in Louisiana named "Waterproof". When two fishermen from the town drowned the newspaper headline read;"Two Waterproof fishermen drowned". So I doubt Miss Belvedere would have faired any better even if it had been burried in "Waterproof" Louisiana.
Charles Foster Tremendous
Wait, my brain hurts
if it was a Macdonald hamburger, it may heve been edible
Jan Beute made my day
Ockie Ditchbank lol lol lol 😂 damm straight lol
They didn't use preservatives in the 50s the way they do now
O
Jan Beute they are not edible to begin with
I was living in Tulsa when they dug her up. It was big news. Everyone was so disappointed when we realized the car was destroyed...
My uncle bought a house with a barn in the back, he went through the big barn and found a 1968 dodge charger, it was cover with piles of trash , apparently the owner forgot he had it. the owner let him have it since his only child lived in Italy.
Why fill the tank with gasoline?
It's way rotten by now, petrol/gasoline is only good for a couple years at best.
What a shame for it to get damaged like that...
It would probably be history now in a scrap yard, if it hadn't been buried. Most Mayflowers are long gone now. The styling just wasn't there either.
We all have time capsules 😂 We got that drawer with useless junk lol
I kinda feel bad, in 2009 I buried some dead batteries as a time capsule, but I moved out of that house in 2017 and never dug it up...
@@PKMNFan4664 That's crazy, I buried my cat in 2009 and I moved out of my house in 2016 And I never dug it up since then
The first car I looked at to buy with my own money was a 57' Ply. Fury while in my Sr year of HS in 75. The guy wanted $50 for it.

As a civil engineer I find it interesting that they didn’t prepare for changing water table levels and make the enclosure waterproof
lol nukeproof but not waterproof😂
Siro Stehrenberger seems legit to me
The capsule was nuke nuke proof not the crypt.
Siro Stehrenberger nothings water poof 😂😂😂
Hahaha a nuke threat was the talk of the day during the cold war era whereas a tsunami was unheard of then
joe sarb Well that's not factually correct.
Talk about dragging it out. There's 10 minutes of my life I'll never get back.
Gee I cant wait to watch all of this guys other videos
Bloody time vampires.
I got a can of baking powder supposed to be expired in 1996.
We probably have one older than that in our pantry LOL
I'm glad the Plymouth was restored. But who would waste a beautiful machine by burying it?!!
I owned a 1957 Plymouth convertible. Today, it is probably in better shape than the model featured in this story...
3:29 gives you the impression that the interwebz was alive and well in the 1950s.
My life was a lie.

Arya Faeqy Lori Heinrichs you to are old enough to be my grandparents. I’ll have to try and find y’all here in 2077.
Maybe theres a ferrari 308 gts under my garden...
No, maybe a testarossa?

Id like a 1968 Impala, 2dr htp. I had one of these. The BEST car I ever owned, with a 250 L 6 & 3spd on the column.
I almost fell asleep at noon watching this video. They should show this in prison as a punishment
What
After watching this, I've learned a new word: "CAPSHULE".
This man made a different video about time capsules and I thought I was going to kill my self before it was over
I've heard schedule as "shedule" before, but JIM JIM hit the nail on the head with this comment about "capshule"!!! Hilarious!
JIM JIM that’s right there with the flat commemorative plaque that was “erected” on the spot.
Made me nuts....capshul
Well that's English for you. You weirdo foreigners who don't speak English are always getting surprised by its pronounciation foibles.
many months have past since I started watching this video. i fear the outside world may no longer be the same as when I started watching this video. soon this video will end and I will once again go into the daylight. 72 more months have past what I thought was the end was a different story that had nothing to do with that I clicked on. i am sure all my loved ones are dead by now and i have no choice to finish watching. i didn't know the second story was unrelated until i was 18 months into it. by then it was easier to continue on and see this through. please tell them of me.
lool
My mind is still boggled at hearing how many Brits pronounce "capshule".
my dream car is a 1957 plymouth fury so that was somthing that really made me happy to see they restored it
a zango
Nothing worse than ads in the middle of the video. I quit watching and I wish I could take my view with me. 😀
That Belvedere would have probably been in better condition if they just left it out on the street.
Nah but in a garage maybe
Louis Laszlo probably realisticly but jokingly they were known for bad rust problems within a year after being made
Louis Laszlo there was a nuke and the weather and it’s been 51 years.
Louis Laszlo that’s completely true because all the humidity from the rain went up and it rained again witch went back in the ground it ruined the car until they rebuilt it!!! And it wouldn’t have been so bad if it just rained on it!!! Most cars these days have to sit in the rain for a long time my grandmas old car sat out in the rain 15-20 years and it just had a few indinsions on the body and popped tiers!!!!
Louis Laszlo a museum would have been perfect for it.
Years back I think a person was buried in a gold cadillac I remember my father talking about it when I was younger I don't know how true it is maybe you do nice video
That's unbelievable. Looks pretty good to me!
That 1957 Plymouth is my dream car. It's the most beautiful and attractive car in my opinion. So sad how it ended up like that. Tears in my eye
I'd want to find a 1970 Plymouth Superbird
Now if reporters would investigate again it would be nice instead of giving there opions
old time engineer honestly I don't know who to believe
Just show us whats under the cover!
Nathan Forde agree
Its a plymouth. Pay attention
Nathan Forde I agree.
Just kidding. Put pay attention.
But*
Oh man I’d be the happiest feller in the world if I found a 1977 Trans Am in my backyard
I've been watching this video since 1957.. and I gave up. I'll never know what it's talking about
If I had my choice of cars I’d want a 1967 Camaro Super Sport with the faded blue paint job.
WP ScorpionWind with the roll up Headlights
Alonzo Hair man Camaros didn’t have pop up headlights they are built into the front of the car like most cars do.
This video isn’t about a camaro
Mateo Del Castillo listen to 9:50 and then read the first 7 words of my comment bud
Would it have been that hard to build a waterproof container? Like a seal welded Stainless Steel box... Poor car.
M. S. L. At the time the technology was around but faulty the idea that stuff had to be water proof and the idea of waterproofing was a new concept
$100 gets you a ton of cement. Rebar is also fairly cheap. Building a giant stainless steel box is expensive.
The only thing I found was an old 1957 500 Gallon Septic Tank.
That's the last "leader's" lunch wagon.
Tell me it wasn't full of shit
If there weren't as many ads, this video would be far more enjoyable
Lesson learned from this : It should be sealed air tight and water proof.
What a waste of a gorgeous car. Water leaking in year after year. The entire car was ruined.
fordsrule35 well back then it was brand new, there was so many of them. Its like seeing a toyota prius today. Many people back then had no idea these cars would be worth anything today
The excessive commercial breaks for a 10 minute video is very annoying.

The 100 year old lady that won the car was 16 when the video began. She got so excited when she won she croaked... her 80 year old baby inherited it.
I really like this cars is so amazing.
I would want to find one of those old mustangs
I ment I would want to find one I'm not really gonna try
Bender Rodriguez me too
Bender Rodriguez
1958???
I didn't read anyone mention 1958 so why are you?
Bender Rodriguez I agree my uncle has a 1989 one

Well it was kind of a stupid notion, frankly
Pause at 0:00, The car is ***ked, just saved you 10mins of your life
nice memory's from back in the old days
how its nukeproof, the concrete layer looks thin, and not waterproof, dummy engr. that time lmao
Imagine if the company that built the vault in 57' also was the same company that built the foundation to your house. Your basement would flooded.
I found an old pull tab off of a can once while digging
i hate the way you use movie clips that have NOTHING to do with your videos
Are you kidding me? That what makes this video more appealing, dude.
Yes. Thank you for saying that.
Agreed
That is why social media is so cruel
Mg b
What kind of person would bury a car below ground and think it wouldn't flood with water?
6 midroll ads...now this is modern day TH-cam
Love your voice as well as the background music
Whats the music called?
Night King : That voice is by computerise is not a human voice
MR Neo Sounds too perfect to be true right? Btw u know what the music is called?
I wish I had a car like this
Tropical gamer ;/ A beautiful 1958 Plymouth Belvedere
FERRARI DINO!!!
Everybody talking trash just remember it's hard and takes a lot of time to make a video. Let's just appreciate it, k?
I remember that day. Didn't get to go to see it, but it was sad. They had so much hope of it coming out pristine.
Would be great if we could get a few more commercials in this video...
use u block origin, a chrome extension. you will thank me later
I'm watching this in 2037 ....get to the point
I was born in 57! Awesome
John boy C
And you started in 2018, right? It probably took 19 years to get to the end of this video. I gave up.
Laura 05 correct lol 😂
No your not
I dug up a car once. It's was a matchbox car.
Jp Jp , LMAO 😅😂😀😆
I dug up a midnight blue Mustang, by far the greatest day of my childhood
Well, was born in '52 and can tell y'all the technology at that time was what they did, concrete and tar. Times in the 60s were a less stressful, my weekly allowance was 25 cents, but I could buy a candy bar and a BIG 16 oz soda and have money left over. I got 50 cents for cutting neighbor's yard. Could fill up my car for 2 bucks. Then I got a job and got paid 1.65 an hour, WOW.
At three minutes and 35 seconds the narration could have been worded better "the car even had an official website". WHAT!!! It had a website in 1957!!
You won't believe what happened next!!
what?

They should have made the underground vault waterproof.
Hands down one of the best looking Lamborghinis ever 9:23
I found 4 ww2 american anti aircraft 40mm shells in my backyard

Poorly planned!
That's my dad, spraying the concrete into the pit at 1:53 . He was there for the excavation ceremony in 2007 as well.
Rip to the gas tank having rusted out from old gas
Bad to the Bone
You build a crypt to hold a car for a time capsule event but you don’t make it water and air tight! Not the smartest but hey this is Oklahoma.
Rodger Watt they thought it was water tight they used a new brand of concrete that was being made in the area and over time cracks started to form it happens this was a community based event to promote businesses and local products making the town closer
1957 Plymouth Owner Hopefully they're outta business!
You're*
edwoll77 here's a story I would like to tell you. Hundreds of years ago I'm believing it was in England. A king wanted a bridge built. A Mason said I will build you that bridge King. So the king let the Mason build in a bridge. After the bridge was completed the king did not think the bridge could withstand some years. So he told the Mason I'm not going to pay you for the building of this bridge for 50 years. The Mason lived and got his money. The bridge today is still standing and a few years ago they stopped driving over it.

And I subbed
