Sinkhole in the National Corvette Museum

[PeteB]

Corvettes fall into sinkhole at National Corvette Museum - CNN.com

Ouch! I hope the '83 didn't go in the hole - it's the only one! :shocked:

Apparently God is a Ford guy

 

[Dave P]

I think they might need Bill's repair jig!!

 

[Mike S.]

Ford did it!!!!!!!! They should just leave it as a monument to how this country's going? Especially the car industry.

 

[Randy V]

Do you think they need another bail out????

All joking aside ---

I do hope that they got all the other vehicles out of there and can recover those that have been swallowed...

There is a '65 vette in Forty Fathom Grotto, sitting at about 135' underwater. That one has been down there for years!

Sometimes, bad things happen to good cars.

What do you imagine the odds are AGAINST a stinking sink hole opening up right smack-dab under a special place like that? In the GADZILLIONS, maybe?

What a darned shame.

 

[Mike]

They're Corvettes not Rembrandt's... I'm failing to see the tragedy here?

That must be where the "tubes" that George Carlin asked about are.

They should be able to recover the cars with a crane. I'm sure they can restore any damage that has been done to the cars. They've restored cars in a lot worse shape I'm sure.

Its is late so that is my excuse.

 

[Rich Roy]

It's a good start! How many more of those POS's can they jamb down there? (former owner of just one, never again!)

 

[Jac Mac]

Looks like a great opportunity to start a tourist adventure in those underground passages to view relics from the past, never know what else might be down there!

At last, Jimmy Hoffa's got a ride.....

 

[Jim Craik]

Sometimes, bad things happen to good cars.

And sometimes good things happen to bad cars

 

[Keith]

And sometimes good things happen to bad cars

WTF? :stunned:

 

[Jim Rosenthal]

How long do you think it took Ford to tunnel all the way from Dearborn to Bowling Green?

 

[Bill Musarra]

Actually, I believe it was the Porsche affectionatos in a concerted effort to "undermine" the strong Corvette heritage in the US. ;>}
