The construction workers then building a new grocery store in Brunswick, Maine, must have laughed at the absurdity of Richard Sampson’s request. The guy who hired them to build the store, asking them to brick up a perfectly good Corvette within the store and top off the vault with a four-inch slab of concrete? With only a porthole window to see it? And no way to get it out? More than 50 years later, Sampson may end up having the last laugh, as that Corvette, now famous for its entombment, goes up for auction.
