I took the Corvette factory and museum tour ONE WEEK TO THE DAY BEFORE THIS HAPPENED!!!
It's hard to believe I was walking around those cars just a few days prior to the entire floor collapsing! Little did I know what was under my feet.....
Here's a picture of me and my cronies the morning of the tour:

Never heard about it until this sinkhole story, but from the articles some prototype '83s were made, and they were all scrapped except one. Apparently A GM employee kidnapped the survivor, and would not return it until GM promised not to crush it. Pretty cool story, IMO.

It was going to be, but production was postponed until '84.
