Sorry to see that. Man if u could have been another 1/4 mile out u would have been  ok, by the looks of the pictures. Hope u got some sort of insurance for them. Still won't replace them or come close to the costs of playing with a classic.

That is most unfortunate, agreed. One less classic Pontiac in Canada.

That's good news! Did any of your cars have anything left that was useable?
By-the-way, $100,000.00 buys a nice small house with land on PEI.
