It's a good thing some of those guys had plastic bags over their cars, otherwise who know how much carnage there would have been!

The paint on the chevelle looks a bit dodgy, the paint came off in a big chunk, glad I didnt buy that one.

SURELY THIS WAS AN AUCTION FOR DAMAGED CARS, NOT AN AUCTION THAT WAS DAMAGED?

These were all big $$$$ cars, all bright, shiney and straight.  All the damage was sustained on site during a storm.

The next one WILL BE an auction for damaged cars by the look of it.

Like Andy said, the amount of bog falling out of the red Chevelle i would hate to see under that shiny paintwork of the rest of those cars :omg:

It was the huge tent they where parked under that blew down and fell on the cars.Watch the vid apparently some had already been sold at the auction.
