Do we have to pick a current year vehicle or can we choose someone's ZL1? . And do ex-wives count as other things to include in the tomb?

Too bad these guys didn't wait 10 more years and bury a '67 Belvedere?

That gas....hahaha, can you smell the can from here or what? ~ Pete

This is easy for me. It is easy to say an Enzo, or some such exotic, but it really should be something a little more attainable.

I would vote a 2006 Z06. No question about it. What a car for the money. What a car, period. Faster to 60 than a $150k twin turbo Porsche.

Things to put in a timevault:

1) The Yugo - the future can learn from the mistakes of the past.
2) A picture of Dubya Bush - another mistake the future can learn from.
3) A complete set of the statehood quarter series - I like them so what the hell.
4) A case of Bud, Bud Select, and Corona - a fine taste of brews
5) My sister in laws - yes they are that annoying!!
6) An American Flag - to show our love for this fine country

So 50 years later Plymouth Division is dead but some of their cars are now the most valuble on the planet!!
The gas stinks,but it is unleaded-now that is rare!!
The $100 savings account-The S&L went bust,but the account if found could be worth $1200-alot less than the EPA would charge for the environmental cleanup.
The $2.43 cents-worth $2.43.
They should have burried some Elvis records as well-that would be worth something.

As to the condition of the car-what has been the flood situation in Tulsa in the last 48 years?

The courthouse area has not flooded or even had a close call.
