makes your stomach sick, can't even image how the owners feel. I certainly hope the insurance companies are stepping up to the plate. The ones that do get fixed, the right shop doing the work will make all the difference. If the repair shop takes a short cut fixing it, then there is diminished value. And the owner loses again. Some of them will prove difficult to fix.

HOLY CRAP.

That is some major damage to some really serious cars. I see the one-of-17, Tawny gold, six-barrel 'Cuda ragtop got damaged.

I really hope no one cancelled their insurance before the auction.

Can you imagine having just bought a car there and then experiencing this.

Not that it was a car for me...but the black TA...like a Smokey and the Bandit style. All I can do is pray for the family that owned it. I think that was the worst one.

I hope that the original paint cars are ok....not that I don't feel for the guy's with restored cars (cause I do).... but the original paint cars are not replaceable..... I really hope it's not as bad as it looks.

my heart go's out to all you guys...


Tom

Way worse than I would have thought! My heart goes out to all who have experienced loss in this chain of events. I just hope the insurance works out for those owners with coverage and I certainly feel for those that may not have adequate coverage.
