    Built GM tough! It looks pretty good. Just a quick wash and detail. I love that ZR1 Blue Devil

    How will the accident history effect future valuation?

    Will these appear on Carfax? Do they have a "fell down a sink hole" category? :)

    Why do you say that? It was obvious that this car was not damaged and was lucky ... nothing to with how they built them.

    Pity the builders of the floor had never heard of reinforcing ...

    Unfortunately, that's not very likely....see the ruby red '93 car for a good reason why.

    All I hope for is the Spyder and '62 to come out ok. The rest. . . meh, the world could use a few less C4-C6's.

    Scary to think that could have happened with people on the floor. From the video, it looks as if there were no warning at all....

    Hear it start up nearly brings a tear to the eye. Guy in the vid "Aye got faith, itsa Corveytte!"

    Shoot GM should flip this onto a marketing schtick.

    If they were Ferrari's then all would need a major including timing belts and the Papal blessing just to start up...
