[QUOTE=GregWeld;454665]I wondered the same thing - why bust down the door when you have a guy with keys...

When the first fireman tries to open the door , it looks like the owner goes to the truck and gets the keys, then at one point he tries to go open the door or hand the keys to a fireman and is told to stand back


Jeff... I've always asked why Football players and Basketball players etc make such huge money - and teachers, firefighters, and police get basic salaries... go figure.

YES Firemen and Police are waaaaaaay under paid


ALSO -- those with collector cars... best have an agreed value policy! Then I say let 'er burn. Steal it? Please don't find it. I don't want it back... Send me the check and I'll build new. Guess I get waaaaaay to attached to some of my cars.

I hope we can take something home frame this tread. It only takes one wrong to cause this and think about the hundreds of variables we have that could cause this on EACH of our cars.

What about our garages? And our sons and daughters that live above them?

I hear a lot of (not all) the contractors I work for moan about sprinklers, the damage from a leak, the expense of install etc, but I ask every one of them, ever been to the burn unit at children's hospital?

And I personally don't do enough in my own garage, I think this afternoon I will do one if not two fire preventative measure.

WHat... I'd take a mill no questions asked!!

The Gibb Harrell ZL1 Camaro burnt up in a trailer fire when Bill Porterfield owned it, was it a pretty small fire?

EDIT: Yep, a pretty small fire and a big chunk of good fortune!
