Yea nobody was injured, I was driving, my brother in the passenger, and my cousin in the back. We were all out within a few seconds. The left fender area and below the driver side were up in 3-5 ft flames within 1 minute. We had no chance at saving it.

Sorry to hear that man, my condolenses and prayers are with you! Death of a loved 1 is a very tragic thing to experience. Escpecially if the loved 1 is an LT1. This one may take counseling!

I have no clue how this happend! The fire fighter said that the fuel line was broken underneathe my driver seat. It was in my opinion a freak accident... Its a tough loss but I dont think ill need counseling...just a new f body will work!
