[Mel]

[dan-hipgrave]

bloody hell, unlucky mate..

[Philsutton]

thought i'd just let you know it wasnt ben that was doing the welding it was paul, one of our mates. Welding in some brackets for the new buckets to on to, dont think he realised the fuel lines run under where the brackets were being put. Went up very fast an lost the welder an loads of other stuff in it as well. Dont think any of us are going to let paul do any more welding :lol:

[Mike.]

oops, bad luck mate

[Matt Nova]

:cry: poor nova bet you've never seen anyone get out a car as fast tho. did you try and put it out?

[Philsutton]

Think he tried to but it out with a container near the car but it spread so fast they just had to get out the way

[Matt Nova]

aslong as everyone was ok is the main thing I suppose tho. Not very nice seeing your own car go up in flames tho

[Adam]

:roll:
oh dear :wink:

[Jim]

Is the owner going to get any money from the guy who was doing the welding?

Puts Cambridges attempt to shame, lol.

Jim

[epo]

did the fire brigade have to come out

[Philsutton]

yeah fire brigade came out as it got out of control very fast. Dont think he will be getting any money off him as he doesnt have any

[Ste_Nova]

will you be paying him for the work?

[skud52]

at the end of the day its only a fuckin nova.

at least i managed 2 walk away with my life

[robb]

Very good point, I have had a nova/life experience recently, I'd still rather say goodbye to the nova.

That's what happens when you rush things, unlucky.

I guess there was only one bucket and the dash in there at the time then. Not you full planned interior.

[Stuart]

mmmmm thats a nice feeling when you have yer car catch fire. atleast you were out in the open and not in a barn with other cars in there etc.


anyway get that car rebuilt, the berst ones are set fire to during work!!!

CP's was well on fire when he was building it, i think we managed to set light to dans new shell a bit, mine caught fire and will be fun, jims was burning a bit and so on.

baptism of fire is good for cars!

[Dod]

He HE hE he :wink: !! They do burn nicely though!!

[wisewood]

That is one of the most tragic things I have ever seen!!!

How did it get that bad before you got it put out?

[Dave]

If my car went up like that i'd run like a mother fooker! there is no way on earth i'd stop get my carera ready an take a pic :lol:

[Philsutton]

oh it went up quick, by the time you see the flames its already on fire under the car along the fuel lines

[Dod]

At least you've a Nice GTE front bumper and Grill!!
