I think it's related to the topic about that flaky artist guy w/ all those vettes stored in a parking garage, rotting away.

VH1 ran the contest...they gave away 36 Corvettes from 1953 to 1989. The guy who won sold them to that artist who hasn't touched them since...waste of some great rides.

DAMN, so he's the guy who won the sweepstakes
Seeing that thread is what reminded me of that sweepstakes

If i'm correct, I think it was like in 92, 93.

I remember that actually happening also back then but never heard anymore about it until now. I wonder if this is what another Corvette Forum member wrote about in a thread earlier this week on the C-2 forum. Something about Corvettes rusting in Brooklyn, N.Y. They listed a link but everytime I clicked on it nothing happened. Has anyone else tried?
