I need everyones help on this one.

A friend of mine has been spending the last 8 months working overtime like mad to pay for his most recent project car.

A 1990 Rx7. He was storing it in a garage in airdrie while he worked on it.

Well, somebody torched the garage last night. He lost everything, tools, parts, the car, about 11,000 worth of stuff. Luckily the engine is still at Rx7 specialties, or the bill could have been up to 20k.

Needless to say, this sucks. No one knows who it was or why they did it. It was obviously a random act of vandalism, because anyone with a brain would have stolen the stuff in the garage if they knew the car was in it.

If anyone knows anything at all, or hears anything about this, please post it up.

I'll update as often as I can, and let you all know what happens.

I'm paranoid about that too. That's why I keep everything that's worth anything inside my house. I remember someone broke into boost_infested's garage and used his own tools to take the parts off his car.

Like what? When car's are stolen nothing good comes out of it except insurance money. Half the time they don't even give you what the car is worth.

That's absolutely horrible man! People like this need to seriously pull their heads out of their asses and quite being cocksuckers.

I sincerely hope house/auto insurance covers every single thing

So unbelievable, what a bunch of cockbags.

It is very sad indeed. It's just lucky no one was hurt, cars and things can be replaced, but lives can't.

No amount of insurance money will compensate for the time, love and effort he put into restoring his car, I can't imagine how devastating this would be for him.

Tragic.

Yeah ken it was jamies. But not the one he used to have, this was a start from scratch car he bought from adam at Rx7. Complete build from the ground up, body and all.

I got some info from Jamie as well. Unfortunately, insurance on the garage does not cover someone elses belongings, and it was in his gf's dad's garage.....so we tallied all the damage up, and Jamie lost almost 20k in tools, parts, and 2 rx7's. (yeah he had a parts car there too)

He's doing alright tho, he knows theres nothing he can do about it, and hes just gonna start over.

Pics and explanation in next post.

So here's what happened, his parts car was outside of the garage in the alley. Someone set fire to the parts car, which carried to the garage. It also torched his gf's dad's truck which was beside the garage.

Here's the pic that turned out the best......so sad.

Luckily Jamie saved a few things. I cant believe that his microtech, clutch, turbo timer, and fuel pressure regulator didnt burn, while the drawer around it did. Lucky guy.

I hear thru the grapevine that there is a bunch of arsons in airdrie lately, and suspected are a group of teens. If anybody in the airdrie area hears anything, let me or bones know.

That totally sucks man :(

I hope insurance is fair and covers it all.

Hey you should investigate this situation.
If it was in fact "teens" that did this. You could probably ask around or even bribe someone to tell you if they know anything.
We all know how kids like to brag and such.
On another note i hope your friend doesnt get discouraged on building cars. Seems like it was more than a hobby to him.
GL to him in the future.

Oh he will move on....ill make sure of it


i will ask around...fuckin kids

insurance will cover NOTHING.

it wasnt insured, it was a project.

Jeluz fucking people in every corner of this city. Some fuck nut keyed my car couple years ago. Like why do shit like that? If i have a problem with someone, i wouldn't even touch his ride. Car's are innocent and they don't deserve to be treated like shit.

Bones21
03-31-2007, 03:28 PM
yeh dont worry hes already lined up another shell to start on. He'll bounce back no problem.

And I say again, insurance is covering NOTHING.

Because all of the stuf was in someone elses garage it's not covered. It's just a cold hard fact of life.


Hey ca18det240sx......evan? Is that you buddy?

03-31-2007, 04:46 PM
Damn dude that sucks!

Its a good thing that hes moving on since nothin can be done about it now. Hopefully he catches the idiot who did that to him and sets him straight.

GL to ur friend!

That fuckin sucks.

Im all for the idea of cops patrolling neighborhoods more often watchin for shit like this rather than sticking to the big roads where theres usually nothing goin on.

Ive been pulled over twice in the last week, once just for a reg and insurance check and then yesterday for a warning for doing 120k on deerfoot at 2 in the morning. It pisses me off that theyre dickin around with trivial things while serious shit is going on.

i'd tell your friend to get a lawyer and try to get some coverage from your insurance. perhaps if you use the thinking that your property caused the damage to his car therefore your liability should come into play.

It doesnt, my gf is an insurance broker.


they dont have to cover shit, unfortunately

i have the book right here

My step dad had a 1970 440 Cuda project car and a 71' 340 parts car in his garage. When his garage got torched, his house insurance would not cover anyting automotive except tools. He lost everything automotive. The 44 Cuda is salvagable as they were able to put the blaze out.


Its going on about 6 years now and he's still trying to get everything back that he lost Hes at about 90% (Minus the car shit). New garage is built, but the insurance company keep trying to replace his good tools with cheap walmart shit.

Its not all rice bud. Theres usually some cool old trucks there, and plenty of stangs. Most of the V8s take off early though to actually do... something...
