This is going to be cool, no matter what the outcome. We should have put together a pool on all the specifics on the condition of the car.

I think the car's body is either gonna be pretty darn good, or else something major has happened to breach the container and it's totally ruined.

It would be a beotch if something happened to it on the way to the Center. As for Coddington

  On a scale of 1-10 I bet it will come out  an 9. The gas will  turn to varnish, there will be a thin film of rust on unprotected metal. The vinyl and plastic will be stiff  and the motor will be stuck but not much more than that.

Hillary Clinton?  WTF does that mean?!?

I'm not sure but I would think the lack of air would prevent rust and vinyl problems and the motor should turn freely. Thats if there's no water in the vault.
I'm still predicting the car will be mint

  The only reason I would say the engine might be stuck is the aluminum pistons and cast iron block being dis-similar metals and causing a film of  corrosion . Maybe with no oxygen around it, and probably no battery in it, it might be OK.  My 440 sat for about 18 years in the garage  and was frozen solid.

Looks like they've taken a practice run to remove the car, with a twin from a museum;

You answered the question with 2 opposite answers.  It's like going to the casino and betting 50 bucks on black and 50 bucks on red.  That's what I call a Hillary Clinton

This will make you sick

[Shakey]

This will make you sick

....if you drink it!

Water was up (at least) past the decklid - -  based on the dirt and muck on it..... Could have been past the roof.  Not good.      So much for the moisture proof barrier.

[1BAD68]

well that thing is junk now

[TUFCAT]

I'll bet its smelly for sure.    You'll need a Haz-Mat suit just to get near that stinkified skank on wheels. 

[69bronzeT5]

It looks like the roof & a-pillar might be bent and water was forsure atleast to the decklid.

Chances are no. My site only features Mopars between 1966-1975.
