Scores of new chevys stored for decades

I came across this story on yahoo today. There is a 1978 Corvette among these cars that has 2 mile on it.
Some of these cars are probably worth much more today then when they dealer put them away.

I hope this link works. Check it out.

It blows my mind that there are cars stored away like this, some for over 50 years! Really liked the video, first time the Cameo had seen light for quite a while. Great collection of vehicles, be nice to see what else they had stored away.

Lordy....still got the plastic on the steering wheel.....take that right to the NCM.......

And yet the odometer's tenth mile counter is yellowed. My 1974's hasn't. Surely this vette in the garage over the years, so it must have been the materials.

I'm conflicted as to whether this is super-cool or uber-tragic... They are cars- meant to be driven and enjoyed...

They don't buy Vettes. They build racetracks.

Is your conflict over?

What a waste! Too bad that they've just been sitting there all of those years.

Reminds me of all the years as a kid I would look at the two wierd Dodge Daytonas that never sold (being a small farming town). Then one day they were gone. Decades later I learned what they were and their value.

No kidding.....I remember driving by a Plymouth dealer out in western Nebraska as a lime green Road Runner Superbird sat there for at least 2 years and I finally moved away and never did know what happened to it.......heck might still be there stored away......those things happen in Nebraska you know..

How about to the tune of $185K (for the 1969 Daytona that is, don't know what the 1978 Corvette is worth)
