1962 Sinkhole Corvette - The Final Chapter
Рет қаралды 31,244
6 жыл бұрынOn February 12, 2014 the National Corvette Museum experienced a sinkhole collapse in the Skydome. Eight Corvettes fell in, but were later recovered and put on display. Of the eight, two were restored by General Motors (the 1992 'One Millionth' and the 2009 ZR1 'Blue Devil'). The third and final to be restored was the 1962 Tuxedo Black Corvette. Work was performed in the Museum's AutoZone Maintenance and Preservation Area and the car was revealed on the fourth anniversary of the sinkhole.

It is so satisfying that this C1 Corvette that fell in was rescued.

Just went and toured this place and seeing the cars that fell in that sinkhole was a sad sight especially the ones that were totally destroyed. Mother Nature isnt anything to mess around with. Awesome showcase they have now with those cars though

This is some stellar, amazing work, so great to see the amount of effort and dedication put into saving and restoring the cars that you have. But what happened to the 1993 Ruby Red 40th anniversary Corvette? I remember it looked like one of the more better off vehicles to be lifted out from the hole, I'm surprised it wasn't amongst the ones that it was decided would be restored. Cheers from Canada!

This is late, but I just found out a nice old lady donated her ruby red 40th anniversary vette so no they have 2 and possibly are just using hers as the display

I think she starts speaking in tongues and thanking "The Good Lord" later in the 911 call.

Why was the car not painted and detailed by a paint shop? You can see the imperfections and swirls in the paint.

It was painted in a paint shop by a professional and no, there are no imperfections swirls in the paint. We invite you to come see it up close for yourself.

You known this is a museum with a big budget,right? And even tho if it got imperfaction ( whic there are no impoerfections ) it is still better than a badly damaged sad corvette.
@ashleymadison9380 6 жыл бұрын
Let us just thank the "Good Lord" for imperfections and swirls.
