30 Years Ago, VH1 Gave Away 36 Corvettes Recently Discovered In A NYC Parking Garage...
They're the Corvettes that time forgot. And 30 years ago, they were the ultimate prize in one of the most outlandish sweepstakes ever.
A rare armada of 36 Chevrolet Corvettes - one from every model year, starting from the Vette's introduction in 1953 and running through 1989 - has once again seen the light of day. The incredible fleet, which was originally assembled by cable music network VH1 in 1989 for a sweepstakes, has sat nearly abandoned in a New York City storage lot for about 25 years!
From Dennis Amodeo, a carpenter from Long Island who won the VH1 sweepstakes, to artist Peter Max, who purchased the collection from Amodeo, to the Heller and Spindler families, who finally convinced Max to sell, the collection has remained in a series of New York City garages collecting dust and falling into disrepair.
Now in possession of the entire collection, restoration work, under the watchful eye of Corvette aficionado and occasional Concours judge Chris Mazzilli has begun, starting with the 1953 Corvette. The remainder of the cars will be either restored or simply reconditioned, as determined on a car-to-car basis.
One of these 36 Chevrolet Corvettes could be yours! Click on the "Enter Sweepstakes" button to make a donation to the National Guard Educational Foundation and you will be registered for a chance to win one of these one-of-a-kind Corvettes as they come back to life again.
