First sinkhole Corvette is restored


Recommended Posts

That was the one that needed the least amount of work. I've heard that it was determined that only three cars would be restored, the Blue Devil, the black '62 (by an outside restoration shop) and the white 1,000,000th convertible. The other five will be displayed as is, and the sink hole will be filled completely.

As I recall this one was driven out of the museum once it was lifted out of the hole so the damage wasn't too great. The '62 would also have been easily repaired. The two other very significant cars that should be restored was the 1,000,000 Corvette and the black ZR-1 Spyder.

The last thing I heard was that part of the hole would be filled and part left and some of the most severely damaged cars displayed as they were brought up because so many people were interested in seeing the disaster. I wonder if the museum has changed their mind.
