Default The Lost Corvettes

Recently dropped cable and went to Hulu for my TV and this show popped up, The Lost Corvettes. The show came out in 2019. It's about a guy who owns a resto shop and gets the job to refurb the private collection of Peter Maxx's 36 Corvettes, 1 model from each year of 1953-1989. They were tucked away in a garage in New York for years untouched. Pretty nice barn find!

I remember back when VH1 ran the original "sweepstakes give-away"......I was in South Carolina, at the beach, on vacation, and happened to be watching the TV while having lunch. I think it was 1989. The announcement for the sweepstakes came on, and as soon as it ended, I called in an entry. Sadly, however, I didn't win....
