Fire Damage!!

I found these going through old e-mails of mine. I believe the blazer belonged to my brother in laws cousin, but not sure. It was a 1970 he had been working on for a while.

Re: Fire Damage!!

That's a shame. Is/was it rebuildable?

Not sure. I guess he was working on it for quite a while. The only time I ever saw or heard about it was in these pictures.

Dang, that's a shame. Looks like it had a soft top too.

Re: Fire Damage!!

That's a real shame, i'm sure we'd all like to know the outcome and whether or not it's salvagable. With those extreme temps I doubt it is though.

Re: Fire Damage!!

might not have been too hot, or the grill would've melted? It sucks, I had a carb fire with a fiberglass hood, you stand there and watch helpless, I am now a spokesman for fire extinguishers in every thing I own!!
