The Plymouth in Eric's post is the one which was sealed in a time capsule for 50 years. They tried to preserve it, coating it with cosmoline and wrapping it in plastic, but the vault turned out to be far from waterproof. According to the Wikipedia article, several attempts were made to restore it, but it's too far gone (well, maybe it can be done, but it'll probably be akin to "grandpa's hammer").
