Storm Damage From Russo and Steele Auction
« on: January 25, 2010, 02:58:44 PM »
Here are some pictures from the Russo and Steele auction this past weekend.  Lots of damaged cars, including some Mustangs.  These are not my pictures, just posting the link.

Yeah it was sad to see these cars in person...I hope they have restore most of them.  I think the 70 superbird got hit the hardest...Locals news article said something about the Tucker getting some minor damage but I didnt see anything...

I had read somewhere that the shop who did the restoration on the Tucker offered to fix the damage for the new owner.    No details beyond that, ie, if its gratis or not, etc.

A number of the shop built cars going across the block offered to repair/repaint and ship the car to the new owners on free of charge to the buyer

Barret had some cars outside in the rains-never heard any comments on that. DID, though, see a sad pic.......A 57 Plymouth, in the rain with a w/shield sign 29 Miles! Sad!
