Default How is Kerbeck doing ?

Watching the damage caused by Sandy, I couldn't help wonder how kerbeck managed as they are located in Atlantic city. I know a lot of people suffered as a result of the storm.

Does anybody know how they are ? or where they stored all those Corvettes? (Kerbeck is my favorite dealer), just curious...

They evacuated the cars before the storm rolled in. I heard some minor wind damage and some puddles in the showroom where the wind blew in water through the doors. No injuries to any of the staff as far as I know.

You got it right!

We moved all of the cars off the island on Saturday. The city is still closed and there is no power but we are working remotely for right now.

Since we are right across the street from the airport we are on the highest ground on the island and did much better than the north part of the island that you've probably seen on TV.

Our staff is all safe though some did sustain damage from the storm. I only lost on tree and it was nowhere close to the house. Our heart goes out to all of those who really took a hit from this storm.

I don't know when we will have power or phones back, but you can reach us by emailing me at dave@kerbeck.com.

Thanks for thinking of us!

Dave

Not sure about Kerbeck but the casinos are slowing coming back to life. AC opened back up yesterday 11/2.
