well i am finally getting enough time to write and put pics on my computer about the set back. i had been buying and storing all of my parts in my house, to eventually put it all together at once...didnt work out that way. At 12am on December 7th, the house went up in flames. hah it was a huge fire...23 fire departments had to come out, over 300 fire fighters, 50+ fire trucks and water tankers, and it lasted for nearly 8 hours. about 2 hours in the tankers and trucks ran out of water, so they pumped water from every place available...they pumped the water out of the pool, out of the lake, and they were even pumping water out of a creek down the street. also, the 25mph winds that night didnt help at all, it was blowing it towards the rest of the house and was only stirring up the fire more.





























I lost nearly $35,000 in car parts alone hah its horrible to say but its true. I had anything from my OS Gikon twin plate clutch, takata harnesses, all the way to custom fuel rail, injectors, brake setup, turbo setup by full-race, AEM standalone hah tons of stuff. But in the end, luckly the my family and my english bulldog made it out okay and ALSO, that the fire was not our fault. A week before the fire, we had a guy come and do a heating system in the house and he was supossed to use triple wall piping and he only used single walled piping, and the insurance company already found all of the evidence and they say its an easy case. Another plus is that its not just your average one man heating company, it was a nation wide company so hopefully insurance will cover all of the losses...including the car parts.

I cant give enough thank yous to the fire department who saved what they could of the house. they said about half the house is a complete loss and the other half of the house is repairable but has TONS of water damage. the fire department did an outstanding job though. the house was also a business, brandywine manor house, (its in honey brook, pa) which will hopefully be back up and running in the spring, Lord willing. Anyways, thats the story of the delay on my car build. hopefully i can get things rolling again in a few months hah im very optimistic, its just car parts hah it can all get replaced. well, hopefully you enjoyed my story and hopefully i can get a build thread going in two or so months. Thanks for reading guys.

thanks for all the support guys. yeah, im kind of sure i shouldnt have a problem getting everything covered since it was the heating company's fault. we actually finally moved out of the hotel a couple days ago, so that was great...starting to go nuts in there hah.

Nick_04K

Fuck! Thats the shits. At least the family is okay.
Get a huge check from the insurance company or sue the heating company haha...Then build your sick fucking car with the $$$$.

tricky_ab

Damn man, parts can be replaced...People can't! It's great to hear that everyone made it out (Even the dog!).

chiboy002

things happen for a reason, yeah that's a lot of money in shit that probably will take a long time to replace but it coulda been worse

Thank god for home owner insurance! I know in Some states they don't require you to have any but in Canada you can't purchase a house without it. I hope they come through and if you used CC's to make your purchases, then you've got billing proof right there.

ROOSEY

wow man that was a crazy fire glad everyones okay. good luck getting all your money back and a new home.
