First I've heard of this. Thanks for the update Malo. I remember their previous incident due to mother nature. And this happens shortly after recovering from that one.

That is bad, they just recovered from a huge sinkhole or something a few years ago.

First a sinkhole swallowed it up, now a Tornado?

I think it's time for them to pack their bags and move somewhere else.

Approaching 100 people dead from this (these) tornadoes, 10s of thousands of people without power in December... Hope no one cares too much about some Corvettes.

I went to the museum (and toured the factory) after the sinkhole incident... and now this. It was interesting to see the cars that they had to lift up out of the sinkhole, with all of the untouched damage. They also labelled each as to if they were going to attempt a restoration, or if it was too far gone.

And yes, Hall... we understand. Most people are able to put related incidents such as these, into a proper perspective. No, there is no way to replace lost human lives.

The NCM is an awesome place to visit. I have been through the Corvette factory a couple of times too. I just googled any damage on the Corvette Museum and from what I researched it was spared from any significant damage.
