Re: Corvette Museum
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.

Re: Corvette Museum
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?

Re: Corvette Museum
That 53 is the one I restored and was displayed for a year. Glad it wasn't there!

Re: Corvette Museum
Hope NCM insurance was paid up and covers all this damage.
