That’s what **they** want you to think! Can anyone say Jimmy Hoffa’s final resting place? Let the conspiracy theories fly.

Well it would have been just a hop skip and a jump from the final sighting. But I still think he went directly to the crematorium.

Someone needs to take that so called artist, encase him in cement shoes, and throw him in the Chicago River.

a 1957 Cadillac Sedan De Ville, to be exact—encased in 15 cubic yards of concrete.

I am surprised there is still air in the tires and the springs and shocks can hold the weight. everything is probably just welded together underneath. but you would think the tire would be flat

On second thought, there is probably cement in the tires too.

The only way there is 15 cubic yards of concrete is if they also filled the interior.

Way less than 15 cubic yards of concrete, it was only coated with concrete.

For that? hmmm … I’d recommend new tires and 4-wheel alignment.
