Ouch

Another one bites the dust. 

Although . . . Monte Python might say, "it's only a flesh wound mate."

Man............you guys are really bummin' me out
Somebody is hurting over that one! It's a '59-'60(from the looks of the wheelcovers). That really sucks, but,like Joe says, I hope no-one was actually IN it!

This one made me sick...  What we've seen happening is either the garage doors buckled or got blown out or the buildings got blown away.  These floated away...  Seeing alot of claims like this.  We had a generic vehicle found almost 7 miles away..

  Man that would really hurt. Hopefully the owners have found their baby and can do what they can to get it straightend out before it gets even more trashed.
