There were numerous exhibits, and cars were displayed on the cavern floor. "Big Block Grotto", with a light show and a recording of an uncapped L88 blasting through speakers. It was amazing, but cheezy, and way too touristy.
What a great idea!..............Naaaaaaaaah.
Not such a crazy idea Bob. Reminds me of the old futuristic Stallone movie "Demolition Man". They went into a museum and stood on a glass floor looking down on an old street scene with a 69 Olds 442 convertible.... -- Bob
