This whole thing blows my mind. To have the hole open up in that particular spot.

I guess there was a super rare 4th gen in the hole. I hope they can fix the cars.

Probably the 93 ZR-1 Spyder - I don't remember them making the ZR-1 as a Spyder so that's probably the only one

Pretty sure they will be restoring them, even have parts dealers and auto repair shops offering to help...

Even though that area is know for Sinkholes - still seems crazy that it was under the museum and nobody knew

Actually the super rare one is probably the 1,000,000th Corvette built. I read an article on the value of those 8 cars and the 1,000,000th Vette was worth possibly $700,000. Even the prototype "Blue Devil" ZR1 wasn't worth much more than $100,000.

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

Yupper - Good Call Ron - it is indeed the 1,000,000th:
Haggerty Valuation Estimates

Also funny the PPG Custom is only estimated to be worth $40K

The reason for the PPG custom is that it is only an 84.
