It will be interesting to see it once all the mud is washed off it.

Looks like someone has busted open the fuel cap and taken the precious liquid.

Currently listening to "Bad to the Bone" with fingers crossed that this car will fix itself.

Some car care product company should pick up on this car as the centre of an advertising campaign

What a shame, that's a very smack the forehead moment!

Americans..... Such a stupid race. to think they can send a man to the moon, but can't keep a car in a time capsule for 50 years without effing it up.... Hmm, it would have been in better nick if they'd just put a cover on it in a garage... Retards, someone was listening to too much Mama loves Mambo Perry Como Records and drinking too much alcoholic soda pop to think carefully about this one.....
