Holy Crap! That really sucks. Hopefully insurance is enough to even try to start replacing everything. Good luck with rebuilding and hope it goes well for you after that shitty luck

awww shiet man! I honestly don't know what to say.
At least the garage was detached from the house, it could have been way worse. Looks like nobody was physically harmed either. Best wishes on rebuilding everything.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. Nobody was harmed, shoulda put that info in the first post.
It seems most likely that a welding spark caught a shop rag and slowly smoldered and eventually propgated into the inferno. My father was doing some welding on his Ultima about an hour before we saw the fire. It was burning for at least 15 minutes before we noticed.
Unbelievable!!
And my Z is not just a car to me, it was like an adopted son and I don't care what anyone says, that's how much it meant to ME.

So sorry to hear of your many losses. In my mind...insurance does not even register for many of the collectables that you have lost. The Lambo, the mill, the 46 knucklehead, your projects and most of all your Z!!
I wish you the best of luck on moving forward with more projects.
Post up your next "adoption" as life gets given to it. Much like you did your Z.

I can understand being upset about losing your car that you put so much time into...but its just a car. Your life will go on just as it did before.

No kidding, other than loss of life of family or friends, the worst thing that could ever happen to me would be losing my car, it's not the money, it's all the time spent customizing, the memories etc...
Sorry for your losses, that really SUCKS. The Z was sweet, I remember when you first posted pics of it a couple years back.

Exactly right. I do value human life more than my babies but there was no human injuries here, just vehicular carnage at it's worst.
Thanks again for the eupport guys, it really means a lot.
I'm already on the hunt for another '90 Super White Twin Turbo and all the parts I had in the car. It's gonna be a long road ahead to get another car close to my Z's former status.
The Viper was in storage where the Z usually is. I almost switched cars that day, I'm KICKING myself for not doing it now, I could find another Viper tomorrow but I'll never find my Z's equal, it will need to be created all over again. Not to mention the inevitable fight with the insurance company when they try to offer me $10K USD for the Z.... They would've paid me what the Viper is worth with very little struggle but my Z had over $20K in parts plus the purchase price.....this is gonna suck.
