My worst nightmare quote:

On saturday evening our 900 sq ft detatched garage went up in flames, everything was lost.







The shop.




My motorcycles, the R1 on the right, R6 on the left.


My twin Hayabusa powered project car.


'71 Lamborghini Jarama, 1 0f 177.



My toolboxes and other destruction.



R6 brake rotors.


Racecar transmission, notice straightcut gears. There is a '71 Lotus Europa underneath.

He has posted the progress of the Z's build here on beyond. He had a TON of man hours into that project and it showed...

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.

Post up your next "adoption" as life gets given to it. Much like you did your Z.

At approximately 10:15 this morning, fire crews were

Fire crews were quick to knock the fire down and after

occupants inside. Fire investigators are still trying to
determine the cause of the blaze. There were no injuries
reported and the house and garage were noted as abandoned.
Ten pieces of fire apparatus and approximately 29
firefighters responded to the call.

Those cars and projects were his kids. Not as valuable as a human life, but they were everything to him I'm guessing.

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.

fucking sigh.

Sorry to hear about your loss. Seeing what's left of your Z kinda chokes me up. Hope you find something to fill that void.

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.
