[4cruzin]

Is that for real!   

[nvrbdn]

yep

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Holee crap!!!

[chargerman69]

That blows, i was in there back in 2011

[The70RT]

I wonder how long the hole was in progress 

[bill440rt]

Unbelievable. 
A sink hole occurs smack dab in the middle of the museum, & swallows up cars. Not in the parking lot, not a block away, but right in the center of this showroom. 
What are the odds of that??? 

[daveco]

Too risky to enjoy driving, so he parks it in a museum. Should be safe there he thinks

[Indygenerallee]

At least they weren't Mopars!!!

[TruckDriver]

At least they weren't Mopars!!!

This time. Sucks either way. I am not hard core Mopar. I love a little of everything.

[Indygenerallee]

Sorry, I can't stand Vettes....

[rt green]

wow. you can hear vette fans all over the country shitting their  pants right now.

[Ghoste]

I'm not a Vette guy either but I still feel for them.  It could have been a Mopar museum and then we'd be the ones howling.

Better than you might think, actually.  The construction probably inadvertently caused the issue to fester.

  Further proof: hell is here on earth!!   

[polywideblock]

so who's spent the last 6 months training the moles  to dig just where they said   

  but seriously would this be classed as an "act of god"

...Or poor construction/engineeering? 

[Silver R/T]

Hopefully they had insurance on them.

[Mopar Nut]

How true!

[grdprx]

I was there back in 2005. Very sad, what a shame. Sucks for any classic car.

Too funny, -but sad.
No human or Mopar casualties is a plus.
