Sweet. I have a 1966 Pontiac LeMans convertible that I’ve hot rodded. Don’t think I’ll ever bury it.

Well, I couldn’t make it down there, but, at least, I watched it on TV. I was probably in Tulsa about that time that they put it in the vault. I can’t be sure, as I was young at the time and I was either in Houston or Tulsa.

My first car I ever bought was a “lemon yellow” 1960 Plymouth Belvedere with a slant-six engine in it, with the “push-button” automatic transmission (shift gears by pushing buttons on the dashboard). I got that car in 1968. It was a great car. I always liked the slant-six engine after that. It ran great. Those fins were giant ones on that car, too...

Believe it or not, for a while (last year) the city of Tulsa didn’t know where the car was (i.e., where the “vault” was and where to dig). But, they apparently and finally found out where they buried it. I thought that was funny when the officials said they weren’t sure where the car was... LOL...

“...the contents of a typical woman’s handbag placed in the glove compartment: ... a bottle of tranquilizers,”

A certain Rolling Stones song comes to mind here.

Back in 1957, you could tell the difference between a ‘57 Pontiac and a ‘57 Plymouth Belvedere a mile away.

I hate to say this but I think it is ruined.If the water got inside the vault like they are saying its going to be junk.Maybe they should have sealed it better.

the contents of a typical woman's handbag placed in the glove compartment: 14 bobby pins, a bottle of tranquilizers, a lipstick, a pack of gum, tissues, a pack of cigarettes, matches and $2.43.

My favorite line in the article. So that is how women of the past kept it all together.....tranquilizers....LOL!!!

Also buried with it were 10 gallons of gasoline

That must have cost about $1.99 back then.

I hate to spoil the party, but if there was water in the vault with that car for 50 years, then it wasn’t buried, it was submerged and is now a very soggy, rusty paperweight.
