    Sorry for venting guys but jsut needed to share my frustration. This was to be the summer for working on my 71 GT. Got a pic message on my phone from my Dad down in WV. Seems my grandfather's garage roof collapsed from the snow over the weekend. Unfortunately his mostly restored Model A was in there and the roof is laying on top of it along with all the other parts and stuff. Had a similar incident about a month ago with my 70 Mustang Grabber FB. The shed it was in collapsed under the snow weight. Dad estimates there was about 4.5 feet of snow on top of the roofs. The Mustang will be fixed and we are yet to be able to assess the damage to the Model A because can't get through the door. Sorry for rambling, just needed to vent. - Matt

    Hope not too much damage. My shed collapsed from the snow this year too. Hopefully my roof won't get much more. I shoveled snow for 2 days week before last. Took a lot off the roof.
