The area under the car is not supported so it is only being held by a thin layer of cement. You can see rebar but very little (or what looks like rebar).

EDIT: I hate seeing this... Our GS sat where the 40th was for 3 years. Glad she is home now!

Just read on the web that the museum has been planning a survivor display for 2015 or 2016 season. Guess they won't have to go far for some really cool specimens! Truly is a sad day for the Corvette community.

My question is how in the world do they plan to (A) extract the cars that did not fall into the pit, and (B) extract the cars that DID fall in the pit. With regard to the currently safe cars, I would imagine it must be pretty frightening to think about driving them on such unstable ground. And on the cars that have fallen, the obvious answer is a crane, but from how far away? Certainly, the entire structure has to be considered compromised now, right? Say they fill the hole and put a new floor in.... would you loan YOUR car for display?

You think they would close the museum ? Go to the NCM site and click on the webcams.
I'd GTFO of there asap.
