Losing everything to fire is horrible...Thanks for the tips Rick, I went to the shop last night and unplugged a couple of battery chargers after reading your(and other) posts.

So Sorry to hear this, hopefully no one got hurt. We had a fire a few years back which wiped out several buildings and stuff.

The Buick community has set up a fund here..you dont have to be a member or sign in..theres a DONATE button

No one was there..it started at 5:30 in the a.m..all the cars where destroyed..

there was a frame off 67 GS convert with a 4 speed factory destroyed..

the 69 Camaro convert that they just completed a frame off on is gone too..it was supposed to deliver the day of the fire...

im afraid his techs will move on

this could happen to anyone..its just a kick in the gut...he's insured etc...they lost everything..all the tools, everything inside is just gone...who knows where the end will be..

Mike is stronger than most..he's already dealt with it, most people would be devistated to see their lifes work disappear..

he's already committed to rebuilding...the fund is to help him get thru the ruff spot thats coming...
