It took three fire extinguishers one was from inside the car. It looks like a gas Leak from the back bowl on the holly carb. The hood was shut and I heard the backfire then smoke. The scariest part was it was in the garage. The insurance is with haggerty and we are working to see how close to...
Sunday I had and engine fire that took out the passenger side fender, door and hood. This was due to a backfire and fuel leak.
I will be looking for a Great Paint shop in the next two to three months. Any help with recommendations will be greatly appreciated.
