1,000,000 Corvette
« on: 02 July 2016, 23:54:31 »
24 years a go, it was produced at their Kentucky plant, the panels signed by the production line workers. It was wheeled into the GM museum and put on display in the Corvette section.

And then what happened?

A sinkhole opened up beneath it and it fell in. :o :o :o :o

1200 man hours later it was restored to pristine condition, including preserving all of the signatures. :y :y :y

I wonder what happened to the other seven 'Vettes that fell in with it.
