Three days driving through ice and snow, I had to stop for this.

Not a fan of the newer 'Vettes but love the old stuff. Yep, it was a tourist trap but after three days on the road, this was a nice diversion. There was a homegrown 'Vette museum, across the street, but I didn't have time to see it.

There was a small room dedicated to the sinkhole. Pics, a looping vid. and newspaper articles. Some of the cars were in the rotunda, where the sinkhole happened.

The rotunda, right over ground zero.

This one made me want to cry. Lots more damage than it looks like. I loved that body style as a kid.

Some of the others from the pit.

In a lot of ways the sinkhole has made this museum more popular. If I hadn't seen the YT vids about the sinkhole, I probably would not have stopped.
