Only talented detailers need apply!!!









This car was burried for 50 years and was put in the ground brand new to celebrate 50 years of Oklahoma statehood. Someone was supposed to win this, but I'm not sure it's much of a prize. Any of you texas/oklahoma detailers want to take a run at this?

I want it to look like this when your doen, lol.

Re: Only talented detailers need apply

Yea I saw this. Pretty disappointing... but not unexpected.

It's also rather funny that they put fuel in the trunk, just in case "fossil fuels were no longer used in 50 years." How cute that they thought we would have actually made progress 50 years later!

What a shame! There are cars that have sat in barns for 50 years that look better than that!!

Re: Only talented detailers need apply

I read that they actually buried another Chrysler vehicle a few years ago.

This time they did it a little better. We'll only find out in something like 2048 though
