Heard it on the radio.

Seeing it is much worse. What a shame.

Toad · Feb 12, 2014

No big deal, it was just some Vettes! Sorry, couldn't resist!

Oh no.I hate to see that

EnglishBob · Feb 12, 2014

Could have been a lot worse, could have happened at a Mopar museum.

dmw56 · Feb 12, 2014

I heard it on the two but I hadn't seen the pictures yet. Could have been worse it at least it wasn't at the Studebaker museum.

Could have been a lot worse, could have happened to my driveway and increased my land value.

Good thing no one was there and only one classic Vette went in the hole.

21willys · Feb 12, 2014

The cars that went in the hole had some cool history. I don't care what company made the cars, it still sucks.

If you search the web someone flew a drone with a camera on it into the hole. It don't look like the rest of the cars are far from falling in. There's nothing holding the floor up except the red pillar in the middle.

Maybe it will become part of the Mammoth Cave tours?

Willowbilly3 · Feb 12, 2014

That's the worst thing I've seen since the train hit the transporter load of vintage Porches. A shame no matter what brand you are loyal to.

Wow, that is awful. I had heard about sink holes but never really understood how big some of them are until we went to see one when we lived in Orlando, Fl. I drove up to the barricades they had set up and when we looked over the edge there were cars and whole houses down inside this huge crater. It was shocking.

Mother Nature ain't nothing to mess with.

As a Corvette owner I am deeply offended by some of the comments in this thread.
Well, not really. I've been told I have to have feelings before I can feel offended

There are a few rare cars that got caught in there, but not a huge loss for the most part. The good thing is that there weren't any people in there when it happened.

Maybe only one classic but a whole lot of rare and historical stuff. As you say good thing no one was there to get hurt.
