Copied from CRG site:from one of the NCM employees:
"The following is what I know about cars involved: We received a call at 5:44am from our security company alerting us of our motion detectors going off in our Sk...ydome area of the Museum. Upon arrival it was discovered that a sinkhole had collapsed within the Museum. No one was in or around the Museum at the time. The Bowling Green Fire Department arrived on the scene and secured the area. It is with heavy hearts that we report that eight Corvettes were affected by this incident. Those cars include: • 1993 ZR-1 Spyder on loan from General Motors • 2009 ZR1 “Blue Devil” on loan from General Motors The other six vehicles were owned by the National Corvette Museum including: • 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 None of the cars affected were on loan from individuals. We have contacted a structural engineer who is arriving today to assess the existing damage and stability of the surrounding areas. While the Skydome area is closed, the remainder of the Museum is still open" This list includes mostly 'one of one' Corvettes.. including the 'One Millionth Corvette' built, a white / red '92 Corvette that I saw being built back in '92, which was celebrated with a huge 'to-do' at the NCM and plant... PS. Just remembered that the current NCM wasn't opened until 1994; the 'ncm' in 1992 was at a small location in a local BG shopping center.. Smiley
