GM perfectly restored the millionth Corvette
after it was destroyed by a sinkhole

Story By: Chris Ziegler

"GM says the job took 1,200 man-hours over the span of four months to turn the white 1992 convertible from a heap of garbage into a showroom-new car, preserving as many of the original parts as possible thanks to the signatures on many of them. Of the hundreds of signatures, two were on parts that couldn't be repaired, so the company scanned the signatures and transferred them to new parts. One additional signature was too damaged to scan, so GM tracked down the signer — more than two decades after the car's construction — and had her sign the part again."

1961 Chevrolet Corvette Mako Shark Concept Car
...with its original paint color....
alongside of Bill Mitchell's Mako Shark fishing trophy:
"The Fish" that inspired the unusual color scheme.


Note: They couldn't get the car's paint color to match
exactly, so they painted the fish to match the car.​

Great story Bob, think I was watching Corvette Nation when I heard that story, that or some other special about the car.

I'm still using the white 63' coupe from June for my calendar, I just tape it up every month...I think I have a problem with mid-year coupes😅
