Join up, help out if you can. I'll be offering some stuff through Mindliss with proceeds going to help out. Probably $5 from every tshirt i sell and 5% of parts orders. I'll post up more details on that later.

What was the cause?

I see a huge pile of wood in some of the pics.

Pretty crappy for sure.

The part that really sucks, is when that happens you find out the hard way just how under insured you are. A friend of mine had a restoration shop just outside of London Ont. until it burnt down 2 days before xmas '04. 3 customer cars where total loses ('69 Roadrunner, '67 427 Vette and a '70 Mustang Boss 302) and lost some irreplacible parts for a few others. He spent all of the insurance money paying off customers for the total loses and still had to pay over $20,000 out of pocket replacing lost parts so that his customers can take their cars elswhere to finish. I ended up finishing off a '72 GMC Pick-up for him and the shop I just got laid off from still has a '66 Vette conv. from that fire.
Never did get anything to replace his shop or tools.

wow that sucks. I wonder if any of it can be salvaged. Also do you know how it started?
