Visited the museum (and assembly line) a couple of years ago -- I'm not a 'Vette freak but enjoyed it just the same.  Came away with the impression that most of the museum cars are privately owned but on long-term loan.  Article says the cars in the hole are museum or GM property  -- still a shame but a big relief for the private owners I'm sure.
