RE: [Chrysler300] 300C Damaged at R&S Auction

[christopher beilby <thelastbestgenius@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I saw shots of that car that are/were on the auction car listing - black can sometimes help hide any panel gaps that might not be great, but that 300C looked a real nice 300C, real real nice, so it a pity to see damage, although any good beater could soon repair that damaged fender shown.


I (obviously) am in Australia, have never been to the big Annual 'mega auctions, but what from afar has stunned me, is on another (Arizona) storm website, they showed a tent being re-erected for another (not BJ or R&S) Auction Co, and the frame seemed so tiny, light and flimsy, and it just basically being sat on bitumened area - like how was that either supposed to stay fixed to the ground, or then also be strong enough not to self destruct in strom wind/storm ?!  Are all the mega auction car display/storage tents so poor/flimsy ?!  Any would be 300 seller might pay to check how strong any tenrts are before letting them put their/any 300 into one?

 

Australia in summer sees in near every outback/country area, 'wily wilys', little mini vortexes, funnels, that tear through, usual just enough to push dust, grass and rubbish everywhere in the few secs they take to go through, but in bigger cases, they can blow down trees, rip sheds apart.  Circuses which used to travel country towns years back, would never use so weak a tent, nor likely would laws allow them to. The often so common mini summer vortexes are caused by different temperature differences (inversions), from bleached pasture and say red ploughed fields - many things - glider pilots love the rising air they cause.

ps some 2010 Mopar prices still good - hemi superbird at BJ is listed in results as making over I think $250k, plus '57 mopar (DeSoto?)coupe at around $75k  ?!

The above link will take you directly to a post on the FL message board 
showing a black 300C that sustained damage to the front end as a result of 
the severe weather encountered at the Russo & Steele auction. Anyone know if 
this is a club member's car ?
