if it was at the track the fire probly would have been stopped... :-/

 

Thankfully you were not in the car trapped when it burned down. As they say, cars can be replaced, people cant.

I hate to see that, I've been there and now how it feels. Hope everything works out for you and glad no one was hurt. BIGGER, BADDER, FASTER!!!

 

Next car will def be having a fire extinguisher

 

That sucks... Hope you get another clean one and built up again.

Good luck

 

Hopefully you'll have the opportunity to come back bigger and better!

 

Bigger and Better is what my friend's keep telling me.. About the only thing that keeps me going

 

hell ya now go ballz out and build the car you want!

 

hate to read stories like this....i know how you feel man. theres nothing worse like sitting there helpless watchin your pride and joy go up in flames. thankfully you made it out ok. only good thing that comes out of something like this is the next one will be bigger and badder. goodluck.

 

I have a rolling chassi with 25.5 cage in it and a Billingsley 9" mini tub kit coil over on all 4's motor plates and mid plate strange and willwood race brakes Manual rack. Speed inc tank and a Whole lot more to go with it. For sale to the right person. It's beautiful really. It's just beggin for a huge turbo set up.

 

Sorry To Hear About The Bird In Flames...hopefully It Can Rise Out Of The Ashes Like A Phoenix And Build A Nicer Faster Firechicken...but Without The Fire This Time

 

My condolences. I've known that car since the summer of 1998.

Good luck with your insurer.

 

did you ever get pics of it?

 

I can't get my damn friend to upload them.. he's just too lazy I guess

 

sorry to hear man

i had a very close call with my car this summer after i blew up my motor and had the car sitting without the motor in it. i flipped my battery cutoff switch back on, not knowing my starter cable had fallen down onto one of the AN lines going from my trans to my trans cooler. the power burnt a whole in the line and started the fluid on fire. i hit the cutoff and ran for the dry chemical extinguisher. never have i moved to ******* fast in my life. i literally vaulted over the hood of the suburban parked in the garage next to my car. i got it out, only damage was the starter cable and the AN line and a huge mess of dry chemical everywhere, i couldn't breath for a few days either from it. god that was scary.

glad to hear you are ok man.

 

A few years back one of my buddies had a shoddy stereo install cause a catastrophic fire. He noticed something was wrong when the fire melted his brake lines just before he tried to stop at a red light. Even with an in car fire extinguisher, sometimes things just go up too quick. I'm sure it is way too early for humor, but next time get a T/A, not a FIREbird.

 

lol at least no one was hurt just pride.

 

I am new here sorry to hear that dude like every one said glad you guys are ok hope to see a new build start

 

Whats it worth to you?

 

Now I'm definitely going to install the fire system in my hot rod... I'm paranoid enough about fire, but your loss really drove it home.
