I wonder how the cars under those tents made out.

Giving a F*N about the cars does not necessarily mean not giving a F*N about the people.

Didn't realize they were mutually exclusive concerns.

A few cars were damaged. One was estimated at $115, 000 and is has a pole from the tent across the top of it.

Detroit Diesel powered hotrod

The truck shown in the following thread is one of those for sale at Russo & Steele this weekend. It was at the Scottsdale Pavilions last weekend. The builder (Randy Grubb) was there and he was a very friendly guy from Grants Pass, Oregon. He has some really neat stuff that he has done in the past and plans to do with the proceeds. He builds one vehicle then sells it to build the next.

Here is the link to a previous thread about this truck err.. car?: 12-71 Detroit Diesel powered.
