Bringing A Very Special Corvette Back From The Dead

The car in this picture might not look like more than a pile of metal junk waiting to be scrapped, but the General Motors Company paid a whole lotta money to restore this junker.

That’s because this is no ordinary car, it’s the one millionth Chevy Corvette ever made, one of the rarest Corvettes in the world.

The white 1992 Corvette was damaged when a sinkhole opened up under the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky, so the technicians and craftspeople at the General Motors Design Center are now working their magic to bring the car back from the dead.

The restoration project is scheduled to be completed by September, and even though the one millionth is hogging all the glory a few other rare Corvettes rescued from the sinkhole are getting fixed up too.
