It was wrapped in some kind of material to, supposedly, protect it over a long period of time. But, when they first opened the vault, a few days ago, there was several feet of water in the vault, so that wasn’t so good. The material the car was wrapped in looked awful, absolutely terrible. It looked like it was all rusted, but, that was on the outside of the wrapping.

The car was not unwrapped and no one had seen what it was actually like, underneath the wrapping. So, when the car was lifted out of the vault, at noon today (local time), it looked bad, from the outside of the wrapping.

Someone is going to be prepping it for a showing today, at 7 PM, unwrapped and clean up a bit. If the water and rust has had a “go of it” over the last 50 years, then it might not look that good tonight. But, we’ll see.

I think they are going to actually “start it up” tonight, with the original gasoline left in the car when it was buried. We’ll see how it works out...

Yes it would. That is sort of cheating to not let the townsfolk see what it looked like after it came up. Having to pay for a ticket to see it after its been cleaned up sort of takes away the exitement of it.
