Wow. That is terrible Hawg. I sure hope no one was hurt? Any ideas what may have caused this? Very sad to hear.

The fire started from down low. I had been having transmission problems. I think it overheated. It had developed a miss and I'd just put a fuel injector in it. it made it better but it didn't fix it. The fire started too low for it to have been that tho.

Bad timing, sorry Hawg.  You didn’t need that just now.  It looks to be in the road way, just to the right of the double yellow.  Were you using the car when it lit up?  Sorry, man.

I was actually stopped at a stop sign just outside of town.
