i have just got back from speaking to some firefighters and hopefully everything is going to be ok............
because the small industrial estate where my TR7 is sat in a garage waiting for the engine to be put back in......... this evening has gone up in flames
he said it might be ok if not a little wet..........fingers crossed all will be well..

This is where its at 4th door up from the left they were originally used as kilns and the walls so i'm told are 4 foot thick so hopefully no fire damage to the car but with a big fire on top of large building the all that water and it was still flowing at 11pm last night from 7pm so with the amount of water its a safe bet things got a little moist down there they think it maybe Saturday until we can get in to see the damage
AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It rides again.....

Regardless of how wet it may have got, it didn't get submerged, and water is always better than fire. Best of luck.
Relax, all right? My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it.
