Ok, I hate to add fuel to the fire here, BUT, I smell a BIG rat!!
There is no way a Mopar would survive with that little rust. I think they swapped out the car with a much nicer example. Must have been Boyd!! They might have you guys fooled but I ain't buying it. I want to see the REAL time capsule car!

Colin I was thinking the same thing, I am no Metallurgist but you would think that sheet metal would have looked like a piece of rotten pine with a billion hungry termites eating at it for 50 years. Maybe the lack of Oxygen in the tomb saved the car.
The way it looks a dip in the Redi-Strip tank and the car will be very restorable. I have fixed MUCH Worse. These old Mopar’s rotted so badly that if it wasn’t stored in a garage in Arizona they were doomed.

Eureka!!! Instead of filling the tomb in with dirt they could fill it with Safest Rust Remover (a product that reacts well with water) put the car back in - cap it off, and dig it up again-- oh in say a year or so, then with a donor car (maby two) we could get it restored.
Lets get crackin!!
