seven hills rd, 5 pm, red hx, 355,550 odd hp, burned at the traffic lights... not happy!!

damn sorry to hear. bet it was a wire through the firewall with no grommet Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

nah...big fuel leak, i mean big

Dam Man! Is it completely burnout to a crisp? or is the running gear still ok?

damn....thats *&^)*))(*&(*)(*(&()&

the main reason why i just purchased myself a extinguisher. bad luck mate, would hurt alot!

just got bck from the pub watchin tigers thrashhh north qld. the first thing that pop'd into my head was "wheres the ****in fire extinguisher?' then i realised its in my vl not my ute...funny thing is i only registered the **** today.blue-slipped yesterday... as fior the motor being ok.. i doubt it as the fire ****s took the airfilter off and filled the motor up with ****. i have taken the sump off and drained it but cant b gucked doin much else at the moment. trimatic and 9iinch ill be sweet. anyway...after i noticed smoke i turned off the ignition (and pulled the key out), and yet the pump continued to pump, and it was still cranking.... i'm ****in beside myself aye, gonna choppa few cones then go check her out...either way she's a write off as the whole interior is gone. so theres 1yrs solid build and 25k down the drain.....plop! Ps. Branko i dont need that rubber anymore.

jesus man that woul be heart wrenching...

is a blue slip a rwc? If so how the hell did it pass a blue slip the day before with a 'massive' fuel leak? I guess it was a sweet rwc? Maybe that's what safety checks are for. Either way sorry to hear mate, that would be totally destroying if that happened to me.

yeh...thier supposed to check, but obviously didnt... but then again so is the mechanic who put it together. and can someone tell me that "fire and theft" cover wouldnt have helped me ...or could it have?

sorry to hear bro aww well now u can fix all the lil things that was wrong with it when u build it again!

that wont be happening... hamoud u wanna give me some money??

So I take it she wasn't covered under fire and theft? Bummer dude. That's really gotta suck. I can't imagine your pain right now. We should all wear black arm bands for you

yeh the blue slip inspector was fairly half assed, i spoz this is why so little workshops can still do blue slips.

fark man that is fully rooted, you must be gutted feel for you mate Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

one word comes to mind and that is Fu......ck !!!!!!

sorry to here man. neva good when u get little enjoyment b4 its taken from u,
