Fire...
« on: March 01, 2014, 02:08:54 am »
I am really sad and shocked, to tell you about my Suburban! Wednesday night at 9 pm, the industrial building where I had my garage started burning. The fire department rescued my Corvette Stingray, my Ford model A, and I could drive off with my Chevy van '83. The Suburban was left inside a part where there was no fire, but we weren't allowed to enter due to the risk of a two story brick wall falling over it. I couldn't get it out, and now the place is gone... The industrial building was used mainly as a storage for sugar, that kept burning and melting, flooding out like lava into our garage. So, this is a RIP for my Suburban '80, the only Suburban ever owned by the Swedish military, and that even got into the Forum calender this year. The links with interviews are in Swedish, but you can see me, the burning place (while it was still not so bad, after three days, the sugar is burning more than ever now), and some cars.

so to hear of the loss.  I almost lost one of mine to a fire.  I was lucky enough to get it free.

     Sorry also, but like Irish said, you did get to save a couple of vehicles.  I did understand "sugar" in all the words spoken in the interviews.
     Irish, I bet they think we speak funny also.
#1: The easiest and most obvious solution to any problem is 99% of the time correct.
#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.
