      I've never been a huge Vette fan but I hate to see museum quality cars get lost.

      1993 ZR-1 Spyder on loan from General Motors

      2009 ZR1 "Blue Devil" on loan from General Motors

      1962 Black Corvette

      1984 PPG Pace Car

      1992 White 1 Millionth Corvette

      1993 Ruby Red 40th Anniversary Corvette

      2001 Mallett Hammer Z06 Corvette

      2009 White 1.5 Millionth Corvette


      Whether you like Vettes or not, those are important and interesting cars to lose in a sink hole. F&ck you sink holes.

                              Anyone seen Ocean's team lately?

                              All jokes aside, this is a depressing event.

I've seen pics of e30's rolling through africa with at least 15-20 africans on them with ak-47's. WILD. its in the african blood. Hope this wasn't too racist, forgive me as I am intoxicated.

                                              They started hoisting the cars out today:

                                              One down, seven more to go! The first of eight Corvettes that plunged into an estimated 30-feet deep sinkhole inside a Kentucky museum last month has been recovered and even driven through the show…

                                                  I'm sure they can restore all of them no problem, but it might be kind of cool if they left at least one of them as-is for the sake of the story.
