Dwight Foster of Ultra One is on a mission to preserve Miss Belvedere, a 1957 Plymouth Belvedere that was buried in a time capsule for Tulsa, Oklahoma’s 50 anniversary in 1957. When the capsule was opened last year, instead of a shiny ’57 Belvedere, they found a car covered with rust because the concrete vault had leaked. With a little patience, and rust remover, Foster is going to preserve the car for the future.

I think they should …
I think they should fix it up and give it a new paint job, and I guess they could find another engine for it somewhere, couldn’t they?
So hold on a sec. …
So hold on a sec. The person who guessed the Tulsa population won the car two years ago. Is this gentleman the person or a restorer the winner hired? Are there any updates? This story blew my mind years ago!

Stupid rednecks! I have a way better one sitting in the back of my garage with 3500 original mi. that was totaled because of a hit to the right side and hasn’t seen daylight since my grandpa put it back their.
the Plymouth …
the Plymouth Belvederes of that era were beautiful LOOKING cars, but they were, in reality, pieces of shit.
If you wanted a good car, you’d get yourself a Ford.
it’s too bad the vault leaked though.
Too bad they didn’t put a ’57 Ford Fairlane in a time capsule. I’m not saying it would have handled the conditions better, but it would definately have given a better impression, rather than just grabbing the cheapest POS off the lot.

if i had the money …
if i had the money i would, they were beautiful cars.
I applaud what is …
I applaud what is being done to preserve the car as is. To “restore” it would be so extensive a job as to destroy any originality. Carefully clean it as best possible and preserve it as is. Any chance of an update on the car’s current condition? And to anyone else out there, if you find a 57/58 Plymouth, RESTORE IT. There are far too many Chevies out there already.
