Looks like those cars are TOAST.

Did they build that place on a land fill..........................

That's no good at all. Hopefully they can get those out of there in one piece and fix them.

Could be a buying opportunity when the caravan gets out there in August. :hide:

Looks like many of them were on LOAN:

I'll take the salvaged 2001 Mallet Hammer Z06, thanks.

What are the odds of this happening right there under the dome? I wonder if this was prep/construction related or a random sink hole similar to those events in Florida.

257 sinkholes have been reported within 1 mile of museum. http://www.plotscan.com/

sinkholes in the same vicinity
 

Interesting map-post.
So will the "barn find" nomenclature be replaced to some degree by "sink hole find". Actually, the reason I bought a 'vette (vs. a BMW, Porsche, etc.) is that I didn't think the repair and maintenance costs would be a dark hole.
Who knew?
:flaghalfmast:

That is a real shame, but I guess I'll go ahead and be the first to ask....

How much for the seats in either one of the white ones or the '09 ZR1? :hide: :lol:

The real worry here is the finding from this point. I hope to hell they can deem the site stable, otherwise the real disaster is yet to come. I go to the museum for the bash every year, among other times, and this is going to be a real bad situation if ground penetrating radar shows big voids remaining. I hope the museum had sink hole insurance, because homeowner/basic structural policies don't cover things like this. You'd think it's a given, but these areas of Ky, FL, AZ...obtaining sink hole insurance has become increasingly difficult.

I'm real upset right now...this is no laughing matter.

Keep it in perspective.

Wonder who insures them?
