Who’s insurance pays for the damage? The owners’ or the auctions’?

holy shit. insurance cant really fix the cars in this situation. sure they will be repaired but like big ed said, so much for the original paint jobs which is where some, if not a lot of, the value comes from.

😢 Saddest slideshow ever. Whoever insures those is going to be hurting. I can’t even imagine the damage total. How do you even fix some of those, especially when uber-rare or unobtainable parts are destroyed?

That slide show makes me sick to my stomach, so many beautiful cars and muscle cars damages and some probably totalled (roofs crushed) The only one I didn’t feel sorry for was that gay 350Z…
I can’t believe all the damage to those muscle cars…tragic
edit: I’m still watching it, I can’t believe how long this slide show is!

That Trans Am is fuxored. :eekdance: Shelby’s going to need some surgery, too.

I’ll bet they find that number conservative.

How high were the winds during the storm to have rocks thrown through the sides of some of those cars? Literally some of them look like they were hit with 100’s of bullets. WTF?
Those pictures are really hard to look at. ☹
