I say prestine if it was encased in a box of some sort. A pile of crap if buried directly under dirt. :D

Oh nevermind. I thought they were going to unearth it now. :?

...Sorry. It's the immature child in me... :P

Wow. This is kinda interesting. I look for to June 15th to see whether they unearth a pile of rust or a working piece of junk :P

The 57 looks close enough to the 58 Fury.... so it is as if Stephen King's Christine is coming back to life :P

When the car was buried, a contest was announced to award the car and a $100 savings account to the person who came closest to guessing Tulsa's population in 2007.

I wonder what $100 of 1957 money is worth now.

This is quite interesting, although I reckon the moisture would've gotten to the car unless the box was very watertight.

I hope it's in good condition. But I find it funny that they promised the car to whoever guesses the population 50 years later...

I mean, surely cars would evolve over 50 years, and whoever guesses it right will probably be dead or too old to drive in 2007 :?

Sounds interesting :D

I hope indeed its in good condition!

Oh, it would probably go to next-of-kin.

That's one nice car, hope it'll look a bit like it when it comes from underneath ;)
