A sinkhole underneath the National Corvette Museum in Kentucky, US, has reportedly consumed at least eight cars. The sinkhole consumed a few cars within minutes and when the fire authorities measured it, it was 40 feet wide and 25-30 feet deep.
The museum is located across the street from one of General Motors' current Corvette manufacturing facilities. There were around 8 models that were affected by the sinkhole and most of the cars were owned by the museum.
The list includes some precious cars like the 1962 Corvette, a 1984 PPG pace car, a 1992 "1 millionth" Corvette, a 1993 ruby-red Corvette (40th Anniversary), a 2001 "Mallet Hammer" Z06 model, a 2009 "1.5 millionth" Corvette, and the 2009 ZR1 "Blue Devil" and the 1993 ZR1 Spyder which were on loan from GM.
