![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | lawrence - 2007-12-05 7:42 PM Isn't it strange that Manning knows what I was talking about even though I didn't? All in fun Mr. Nathan. I'm not psychic or anything, Lawrence... I just scoured the thread for a link to SOMETHING. That's when I found that link MoparsRule! put up, watched the clip all the way through, and there it was! A quick clip of what appears to be BrAin CoPPer stroking his machine. Don't get me wrong, though... It still scares the bejesus outta me that I actually knew what YOU were talking about. What's this world coming to? Likewise, all in fun. -NM | ||

Expert Posts: 1218 ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: Warren, Michigan | It must have gotten caught in the rain on the ride over and melted. All someone needs to do to obtain the car is scoop up the puddles leading to NJ, dry them out, and fill the urn with the remaining dust. | ||

Glad she made the trip successfully. I'm looking forward to viewing the pictures of the de-rusting process.AndyInOregon Posts: 4 Joined: Tue Dec 04, 2007 1:34 pm E-mail Top -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Re: I'm concerned for her by Tommi(Fin) on Sun Dec 09, 2007 5:22 pm I have wondered the condition of Belvederes body. I saw 1 picture where there was kinda paint under that mud. But is it badly rusted? The running gear is might be gone, but I hope the engine will run. I have been wondering these things several months. Just hoping that everything goes well, and we have something to look when De- Rusting progress is over. (Cant wait to see the first pictures, what is under that mud? )Tommi(Fin) Posts: 2 Joined: Sun Dec 09, 2007 4:59 pm E-mail Top -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Her Condition by Jessie Rock on Tue Dec 11, 2007 1:50 pm Well she is very weathered from her long life in all that water and OK mud but there are high hopes for her. We have at this time only been documenting her current state very carefully. At closer look she seems to have quite a bit of paint on her and her chrome seems to be more intact then originally thought. I will keep you posted and hope to have some photo's up very shortly. | ||

Member Posts: 13 | Just in case any of you are looking for the best close up views of the '57 Plymouth, click here. No they are not the most recent views of the car but it has clear up close views including the rusted through spots as well as the crack near the right tailfin. However, if you look on the passenger side lower control arm, you can see a little bit of exposed metal from the car being hoisted out of the crypt. Clearly shows the control arms/front end components are still in excellent shape. Also on the trunk door you can see some of the outer layer chipped off, revealing the sheet metal inside (hard to tell if it is good or bad though), so I also think some of the light brown stuff on the outer panels are just mud. The small holes are mostly on the brown rusted through spots as well as dark brown patches such as the panels behind the rear bumper, behind the rear window, lower panels where they are in the water longer, etc. Edited by MoparsRule! 2007-12-12 4:08 AM | ||

Posts: 19146 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: bishop, ca | Welllll......it's pretty (ugly, actually!) clear that Ultra-F-Up doesn't/wouldn't want to show their "work" in progress, so that the full dra-ma of their finished-result might be revealed, at a momentous occasion; kinda like the King Kong Show, in Nueva York, (and we all know how THAT production ended!!) OR, to quote some "Military Intelligence" , from a recent event : "We had to DESTROY the village (car) in order to SAVE it." | ||

Expert Posts: 1622 ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: Seville, OH | I just have to believe that when they pull it out of the dip tank or however they do it, they will regret they ever got involved. I hear they have some want ads out for a rust-free 57 hardtop body and chassis. | ||

Member Posts: 13 | No the car won't be dipped into a large vat but by section according to Ultra One but I am not surprised they posted a wanted ad for a rust free body/chassis! I read somewhere that one could easily poke his/her finger through the body panels on Miss Belvedere. Is that true? | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 7827 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: Williams California | Yes. There were several spots where small holes were evident in the body. There are undoubtedly places where the paint itself is what keeps the holes from appearing larger. ---John | ||

Member Posts: 13 | Yeah replacing everything means it isn't the same car that was unburied from the vault. Virtually only the trim are in excellent shape. The only reason Miss Belvedere was still presentable was because it was under water which helped keep the shape. I imagine if somehow air got in long before they opened up the vault, the car would have turned to dust, leaving only glass, rubber, thick metal parts, etc. Edited by MoparsRule! 2008-01-11 2:46 AM | ||
