Oddly I think the insurance on those beautiful machines would be not that high. They are in a museum and not driven. Thus the cost should be just their value without factoring in the chance of a car wreck. I hope he had that insurance. They are beautiful machines to admired for many future generations.

That’s a good point. Liability and medical is really costly in car insurance. I was thinking the cars’ value might be quite high, though: I wonder how many they had?

BTW, here’s a good vid of the tornado itself:

I’ve driven by that spot on I-57 many times over the years, esp. when I was younger and making lots of trips to the Chicago area (for business, the old Consumer Electronics Show, see friends, be sure to stop by Rolling Stone Records, etc.)
