Authorities believe the recovered 1966 Chevrolet Impala is connected to the 1976 disappearance of Clarence Owens and Everette Hawley in northern Illinois.

A car pulled from the muddy bottom of a river in northern Illinois may bring authorities closer to solving a decades-old cold case. The 1966 Chevrolet Impala was recovered recently from a portion of the Pecatonica River in Winnebago County, and it's believed to be linked to the disappearance of two men 10 years later, officials said.

'It's quite challenging because it's sitting in the mud, 8 to 10 feet, which is not that deep but deep enough,' Caruana told the station. He said that he was not surprised the recovered car was connected to Owens' and Hawley's cold case.'Not too many cars that meet that description is driving in the Pecatonica River,' the sheriff said.Owens' son, Tom Owens, told WIFR that his father and Hawley were friends and business partners.
