    I was thinking that too, but I found a car in an old burn years ago, it looked fine on the outside, but the floorpans and frame had melted out.

    Am I seeing things? Some of the windows still in it!
    I feel for the owner! I remember when we had bad fires here in 98 and you saw shells of classic cars in burned out garages. :cry:
