Hopefully he doesn’t throw cigarettes out the window anymore.

What the hell are the cops doing just watching...don't they all carry extinguishers in their cars ???

I'd have been scooping dirt with my shoes to throw inside. I would NEVER just stand and watch that happen to one of mine. My efforts might well be fruitless, but to just stand and watch just isn't in my DNA.



I did have a factory LS5 car in the same color combo from '73-79, but the last time I saw it in the MPLS area was about 12 years ago and it was red !!


Could be he put an MSD box in the car and it caught fire. We've had a couple of those around here a few years ago.

I don't know, but it looks like an extinguisher was discharged at the front of the car, possibly under the hood since the pins are out. Lots of powdery dust and the paint on the hood seems pretty burnt. In fact, fella in the last pic has a red extinguisher in his hands.

Dream cruise a few years ago, I was at the Pontiac club lot, a guy in a Jegged up pick up had a nice removable hood, he goes to start that mess, it backfires and the carbs on fire, the guy went from putting his hand on it to his shirt, my chrome extinguisher was around $100, He didn’t buy one with all the Jeggs parts he bought. It soon became a big fire, finally a guy ran over to his fire ex and sprayed it, now his fire extinguisher needs to be charged. The guy didn’t offer him anything for the help. Other than under the bonnet was a mess, he drove away, if you don’t carry a Fire extinguisher, maybe seeing that Lic will make you get one. Have one in the garage too.
