“I can’t tell you how excited I am to be selected for the Corvette Hall of Fame. My love for Corvettes goes back to when I was a teenager, and it was the love for the car that got me into racing and the automobile business," Hendrick said. "To be honored at a place where so many of the Corvette greats are honored - it’s just humbling. I never dreamed that I’d be recognized in such a way.”
Hendrick owns a large collection of Corvettes that includes many of the first and lasts in models and generations. His most recent addition is the VIN 1 Z06 Stingray Corvette that he paid $1 million for at auction in support of the Karmanos Cancer Institute.
