I've been through a storm like that too. I barely got my car in the garage before it got damaged...my truck wasn't so lucky. Insurance took care of it though.

Wow....glad it's not damaged, they were saying that we might of got the same weather around here yesterday, I moved the Camaro over in the garage so I could get my kids Stang inside just in case.... and you know the Chevelles were safe.
Again...glad it worked out for you!!

holy cap locks! haha.

But thank you. As of right now they will be staying the stock color as I am trying to keep the car factory/dealer stock. If anything, they will eventually be painted RJT, but I agree SIM would look nice too.

Thank you all for the outpouring of concern about my car. It was a horrific scene indeed. I'm having my basement fully renovated, so all of the Contractor's equipment was in my garage. I couldn't wait to take delivery of my car but had nowhere else to put it unfortunately. I'll take some pictures of my car (now in the garage of course) and if you guys see something I can't see, please let me know.

If this car was produced by the same plant in Canada and using similar material that my Gen4 Camaro was made of (almost like a composite metal), I'm not worried at all. My Gen4 was VERY difficult to ding or dent, especially around the sides. Just a better quality metal compared to my Cobalt and my Cobalt appears just fine. Some more pics to follow all! Thanks again for caring!!

That sucks, I would have been going crazy trying to get the car undercover. Hope it did not get damaged.

GMtothecore · 06-16-2009, 10:34 PM

Holy crap!!

WOW... glad to hear all is well...............

OMFG! An FJ Cruiser's fording depth is 27.4”. I wonder what the Camaro is rated at...

2011RS/SS · 06-17-2009, 01:08 AM

I don't see how you stood there so calmly videotaping that. I would have gotten the bubbleguts from watching that happen. I am surprised that hail didn't break the sunroof though considering how big they were and how hard it was coming down at the time..

Glad everything look OK!!!
