Higher ground here in Athens, GA.

I figure anyone that owns an 8-million-dollar beach front home should have enough money and sense to save a couple of my favorite cars.

All he needed was a '69 Trans Am and he would have had the trifecta.

That being said, by the time they realized they were going to take a direct hit it was probably too late to get the cars moved.

Hate that the guy had the trouble, it terrible what those folks are facing down there.
