About this cache: If you are attempting to complete the entire Cache Across America series, you are sure to put some miles on your vehicle. I am sure only a few of us are lucky enough to be able to drive the same kind of cache-car that is honored here.
What a better to place to stop on a series dedicated to America than a museum dedicated to the American Sports Car!! You will definitely want to cruise in to get this cache which is located at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green. If at all possible, you will want to make time to visit inside the museum as well.
Since 1953 the Corvette has been America's Sports Car. The National Corvette Museum was established as a 501(c)3 not-for-profit foundation with a mission of celebrating the invention of the Corvette and preserving its past, present and future.
The 68,000 sq. ft. building houses more than 50 Corvette models and one-of-a-kind concept cars spanning the history of Corvette. Also on hand are thousands of Corvette related photos, movies and videos, advertisements, scale models and rare memorabilia. Spotlighted are the people who have made Corvette an American icon.
Inside, striking full-scale dioramas show classic Corvette models and famous performance Corvette models in period settings. You'll also find the historic one-millionth Corvette, donated to the museum by Chevrolet. You may also want to visit the Bowling Green Assemby Plant, where the Corvette and Cadillac XLR are made.
This cache is a hidden ammo can that was placed with permission from the Events Manager at the Corvette Museum. It is conveniently located right off I-65 and is in an ideal location for travel bugs. The posted hours of the Museum and this cache are 8am-5pm 7 days a week excluding major holidays. Be sure to bring your lunch – there are picnic tables nearby.
