Did you know that Corvettes are assembled at a plant in Bowling Green Kentucky? If not you probably didn't know that the Corvette museum is across the street from the assembly plant.
As Bowling Green was on our way back east we did a quick pit stop to visit the museum. We have been to lots of car museums such as the Mercedes Benz and Porsche museums in Stuttgart and earlier on this trip the Henry Ford museum. Well I hate to say it but the Corvette museum was not very good. It did have nice cars on display but it didn't feel like I was getting a history lesson of the car when walking through. It felt more like a commercial that we walked through.
The best part of the museum was the area dedicated to the incident from a few years ago when a section of museum floor collapsed into a unknown cave and took many priceless Corvettes with it. The display had lots of geological area history (Kentucky has lots of caves). And the cars too damaged to restore were on display.
