Gasoline does not age well. This sounds like a dumb idea from the git go.
Gasoline does not age well.
I’m sure the old leaded gas is a pretty good grade of turpentine.
Yeah, using the original gasoline does seem like a dumb idea. I don’t really know for sure if they’re gonna actually “use” the original gasoline or not. I only know for sure that they buried it with some gasoline (I think 10 gallons). They’re probably gonna use fresh gas, I would imagine.

Ahhh..., I just saw a news blurb on TV — just now. They just said that the gas and oil (for the car) was put in other containers and not in the car, itself. Those containers were buried along with the car.
And a further note, on the starting of the car. It was just announced that they’re not going to be able to start it by tonight. So, that’s out of the picture, apparently.
It’s all over the local news now. They’re really building it up...
