Miss Belvedere, you have a winner!!!

At 384,743, Raymond Humbertson's 1957 entry to guess Tulsa's population in 2007 came closest to the actual number of 382,457. The prize is the 1957 Plymouth Belvedere that was buried at the Tulsa County Courthouse 50 years ago and recovered on June 15, plus a savings account worth a little more than $700.

Folks in Tulsa r-shore crazy about burying autos.. :screwy:..looks like they would have learned their lesson.
 Meanwhile, plans are under way for yet another Tulsa time capsule, this one in Centennial Park next to the Plymouth Prowler that was buried in 1998.

Tulsa's Young Professionals and the Junior League of Tulsa confirmed that they are putting together a capsule that they hope will also include "a large item" to be unveiled in 2057.

"Maybe a Dodge pickup," Tulsa Young Professionals' Marnie Ducato joked to Hovell. "A Harley-Davidson motorcycle has been mentioned, or maybe part of an airplane."
