I dont know.. I believe the bottle could do that damage, if it were put in wrong, like said above about the safety disc...
Kind of weird cuz that car looks like it had more to it then just a bottle blowing..
Like maybe sitting in 100* temp outside all day... LOL

this seems to happen about once every 2-3 years. I remember some guy that posted here had a bottle blow up in his car and the car was in the garage. Needless to say that he needed a new car and a new garage.
maybe someone could find those pictures.

damn that garage pic, he must have left the bottle heater on? A big steel bottle under alot a pressure will do that kind of damage in a heart beat, explodes like a grenade.
yep....same principle
It's possible that the concussion opened the gas tank door.....but looking at the pics the gas cap is also unscrewed.....so they probly poked around a litte bit before taking the pics.
Tell you what....that will ruin an afternoon

insurance i bet or a ghetto home made bottle? i had a argon bottle blow in a storage container before but it was up right but fuggon loud as ***...they can blow likr that tho
I figgure the window design on a F body like a 3rd or 4th gen would allow pressure to escape since you can so easily pull the window out and stick your arm in to unlock one.

Bed is probably cooler than in the car sometimes. 
I'll post up the link to the forum that was nabbed from when I get a chance.
Notice the bottle is still in there... top is still in the back, bottom is in the seat.
