New User Posts: 1 | The sheet metal that is on that fender seems to be cleaning up, but what about the lack of metal in the areas where the rustouts occurred (like the frame)? These will definitely need the creation of metal, or replacement parts...... ----- "When the going gets weird, the Weird turn Pro - Hunter S.

Extreme Veteran Posts: 585 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: SE Arizona | The car is located at Historic Auto Attractions in Roscoe Illinois (a bit North West of Chicago ). Their web site is down but they do have a facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/Historicautoattractions/ My 50th High School Reunion is in Illinois the middle of Sept. I'm still planning on driving my 57 Plymouth that I built and drove to Tulsa in 2007 back home and hopefully if the Museum is open, drive up to see Miss Belvedere. Of course with everything that is going on in the country everything is tentative right now. | ||

That sure was a fun trip in 2007 to see all this unfold, even if the car was a disaster. ---John | ||

Extreme Veteran Posts: 585 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: SE Arizona | Got the word a couple of weeks ago the HS reunion has been cancelled for this year. I'm still kicking around whether I'll go back at all this year or just wait till next August when they have the reunion scheduled for. Either way I'll be going to the museum when I do go back. | ||

Extreme Veteran Posts: 585 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: SE Arizona | Well a year later and I made it! The postponed 50th class reunion was held last week and I drove the 57 back to Illinois. On Saturday I drove up to Roscoe IL to see the Museum. The car looks better than when I saw it last, but it’s still pretty sorry looking. Good story though and I wouldn’t trade having made either trip. . Edited by Mike P 2021-08-25 5:29 PM (RT1.jpg) (RT4.jpg) Attachments ---------------- ![]() ![]() | ||

New User Posts: 2 | Have to remark, that this car was never called "Miss Belvedere" while it was buried. It was always referred to as "The Buried Plymouth". It was not until after the car was dug out, that a local news anchor. who hosted the unveiling explained that she felt that the car deserved a name..........so she called it "Miss Belvedere". In any event, here's the buried Plymouth today. I marked my calendar back in 1973, to make sure I was at the unveiling. Made the trip from Chicago to Oklamoma, just to see the car removed. Glad I made the trip!!!! Edited by 61CopCar 2024-10-06 8:40 AM (buried plymouth.JPG) Attachments ---------------- ![]() | ||
