It is unbelievable that a large sink hole took down the showroom of special vintage Corvettes like a thief in the night. It was caught on security cameras as it slowly swallowed several cars and it left the building intact.

I can't get a link to switch up, the story with video is on most news channels today.

Saw it on face book today, hate to see that collection damaged / destroyed

I hope that they can be recovered and restored.

They said today that they will recover the cars and rebuild the building. Must be they found the bottom of the hole is solid. It looks to be that they built over a shallow coal mine.

could you imagine... what if it was bank robbers, tunneling their way to the bank...

*BAM* they get hit on the head with a bunch of Corvettes.

I was thinking what if someone who knew about the caves under the showroom was coming up from the bottom to steal a Special Corvette and got carried away with the shovel and pick.
