On June 15, 1957, a new gold and white 1957 Plymouth Belvedere Sport Coupe was buried in a time capsule in downtown Tulsa, OK. The time capsule was part of Golden Jubilee Week: Tulsa’s celebration of Oklahoma's semi-centennial. The car was buried under the sidewalk in front of the Tulsa County Courthouse, approximately 100 feet north of the intersection of Sixth Street and Denver Avenue. The car was seen as a method of acquainting twenty-first century citizens with a suitable representation of 1957 civilization. According to event chairman Lewis Roberts Sr., the Plymouth was chosen because it was "an advanced product of American industrial ingenuity with the kind of lasting appeal that will still be in style 50 years from now." The contents of a women's purse, including bobby pins, a bottle of tranquilizers, cigarettes and an unpaid parking ticket, were added to the glove compartment of the car shortly before burial. In addition, several other items from the era were placed into a separate time capsule and sealed in the vault.  At Noon on Friday, June 15, 2007 the 1957 Plymouth Belvedere was taken from the ground just as it was put in 50 years ago. This car, its contents and the mysterious time capsule were loaded onto a trailer and transported into the Arena of the Tulsa Convention Center in preparation for the unveiling.
