Did you know about this? ’Cos we didn’t; but back in 1989, TV channel, VH-1 ran a phone-in competition where the prize was 36 Corvettes, one from every year to date. That’s not 36 winners getting a Corvette each, that was a prize of 36 ’Vettes!
From the four million calls, the cars were won by a carpenter from New York who immediately sold them, having nowhere to put them.
The next owner of the collection also struggled, depositing them in various Big Apple parking garages, and there they sat for years. The good news is that due to a deal between the Discovery channel and Corvette Heroes, it’s happening again.
