Anthony? As soon as you picked up the phone this morning I could tell by your voice that your gutted totally....like I said to you on the phone I am speechless.....Like the others have said, It's good that no one was hurt in the incident, we all will miss the very car that was, a bloody beast! It's totally not fair......but the main thing is we still have you and your safe.....

Holy shit! Sorry to hear this man.
When I built my r100 I never trusted my fuel lines 100%, I've always stressed out about my car catching on fire.
Gutted, you've probably heard this heaps but at least no one was hurt or killed...
Good luck with everything.

Ah shit man - it was you this morning then. I thought it might be you but then wasn't quite sure - couldn't see the brake calipers. I hadn't spotted your car since you got the rims on apart from pics on the forum.

If I wasn't running late for work this morning I would've stopped, but looked like the MFB had everything covered - fire was out and they were cleaning up.

Condolences - hope everything goes smoothly with the insurance. Main thing is nobody is hurt...

I am very sorry Anthony. You must be heartbroken. I wish you all the best for a quick insurance payout and a down payment for another car.
I got this plan. It's called 'Save Ass'. And the way it works is this - I slip outta one of these windows and I run like a bastard!
