Classic Cars Chevrolet

While you can’t walk into your Berlin-area Corvette dealer and expect to drive away with a $10 car, there may be a way for you to get your Vette for that little.

The National Corvette Museum runs a number of raffle fundraisers each year, in which winners can receive a Corvette for as little as $10. The raffle fundraisers are an integral part of the Museum’s operating funds.

The first raffle running at the National Corvette Museum is a “Build Your Own” Z06 raffle. The winner can select a current year Z06 Vette and choose the options that they prefer. Tickets cost $500, and there will only be 500 tickets sold.

The Museum also is raffling off a 2009 Victory Red Corvette Coupe. The Coupe comes equipped with the 3LT package, ebony interior, glass top, NPP exhaust, polished wheels and automatic transmission. The tickets are just $10, and an unlimited number will be sold.

You can also have a chance at a 2009 Jetstream Blue Metallic Corvette Coupe. This one has two-tone seats, polished wheels, 3LT package, automatic transmission and performance axle. Tickets for this one are $250, with a maximum of 500 tickets to be sold.

In addition to Corvette raffles, the Museum also features vacation package raffles from time to time.

As any true fan of the Corvette can tell you, all corvettes are made in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Also in Bowling Green is the National Corvette Museum. If you’re into Corvettes, you have to get to Bowling Green to experience the passion and excitement of America’s Sports Car first hand.

One of the things you can do in Bowling Green is take a tour of the Corvette Assembly Plant. There is a fee of $5, and the tour includes mementos and a tour of the XLR assembly area. A variety of people, inlcuding active military, school children from 3rd through 8th grade, GM employees, as well as GM retirees, are able to tour the plant for free.

There are a number of different things you can do at the Museum, too. There is a gift shop, of course, where you can purchase Corvette memorobilia. There are a number of exhibits, which change over time. At any given time, there are more than 75 Corvettes inside the 68,000 square foot museum. The Museum is housed on a 52-acre lot, and features an outdoor picnic area, large parking grounds, and even an amphitheater for special events.

Whether you drive a classic Corvette, a new 2009 Corvette ZR1, or whether you’re just a fan, the National Corvette Museum is worth a look.
