fxstsmith Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 (edited) I burnt my truck to the ground this afternoon. I was taking my little bro for a joy ride and turned on the NOS and it backfired. I thought no big deal and jumped out shut of the NOS bottle popped the hood and there was a small fire. No big deal I thought it will go out once the residual fuel is burn off the intake and more fuel started to come out fast. So we backed off and let the son of a bitch burn...not much I could do as I was out of town and no cell phone. By the time help arrived it was totalled. I have pics that I will post once I get back home. So, I'm in the market for a new truck. Anybody selling one hit me up.

NTMD8R_SS Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 That sucks! One big draw back about NOS. Is it all burnt up? Or just the engine bay/ front end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fxstsmith Posted April 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 That sucks! One big draw back about NOS. Is it all burnt up? Or just the engine bay/ front end? From the bed to the front is molten metal. Only thing I'll get to salvage is the tailgate, rollpan and a few misc. items. Yeah a 30 dollar fire extinguisher and a little common sense could have saved it but hine sight never gets anybody nowhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
