Maine officials hope to solve mystery of car found at bottom ... - WWMT
A car that sank to the bottom of Sebago Lake was recently discovered.
wwmt.comHere’s the latest on the Sebago Lake Camaro discovery.
A 1974 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 was recovered from the bottom of Sebago Lake, Maine, after underwater explorer Jason Smith spotted it about 55 feet down. Investigators say the car showed no plates and windows were down, and the exact story of how it ended up there remains unclear.[1][4][5]
Maine detectives are pursuing the VIN clues and working with the Bureau of Motor Vehicles to identify the vehicle’s origin, with ongoing attempts to determine whether it sank decades ago or if other factors are involved. The recovery has prompted discussions about the lake’s history of boat traffic and why the car may have remained submerged for many years.[2][5]
Coverage from Maine outlets and national-style car news outlets is treating this as an open mystery, with local authorities continuing the investigation into the vehicle’s provenance and the circumstances surrounding its sinking. Expect updates as investigators confirm partial VINs and compare them to state records.[4][1]
