I have damage to my 70 2wd blazer and my 65 biscayne . have to repaint both. This sucks bad. I big gust of wind like 90mph took them both out,anchors and all. Scrached both of them deep also. I was to have a garage 3 years ago and the yard is a mudhole, cant get anyone to fix it. I may be moving soon , i will keep all posted when i do. it will be a while.Erick

You can always move further this way, not as cold and there are some good folks around

, with 26 opened across Sam's Gap you would only be about 45 minutes. It does flood a little but not the snow, cold crap usually that you guys get up there.

Sorry to hear that about the carport.

Was going to put some up here, but they changed the rules from a 90 mph wind to the new IBU rules of a 110 mph wind.

So all the manufacturers are scrambling to get things right.
