Re: ‘76 GMC LS Swap

Some real painful photos to look at here. Girlfriend was home alone when the car went up. Couldn’t or didn’t get to the hose in time, but luckily we live 4 blocks from a fire station. Would’ve helped if they’d listened to her when she told them how to pop the hood, instead of going after the original sheet metal with an axe and letting car burn to a crisp in the meantime. Then they busted a window and the fire flashed through a firewall hole and fried the whole cab! All in all, I’m thankful that they showed up so quickly and stopped it from spreading, but dammit if they didn’t destroy the whole garage for what was a pretty isolated blaze. The car was almost halfway out the door! Car and structure could have been saved by a more experienced crew....
