Wow man, that really sucks!

I hope you get insurance money to cover your damages.

Good luck!

from what the firemen said, the torch tanks went as well as 2 of the 3 propane tanks and gas tank, I just don't know what to do now...... my passion for it isn't lost... but it's just that I'm starting over from ground 1 again, the last 1 1/2 yrs worth of time and money, but what hurts more is all that time, time.. and time that's all worth nothing now :(

Damn fool... Sorry to hear about the lost. Just remember nothing can replace experience though...

BTW, just use some carb cleaner, I'm sure you can sell some of those stuff on egay.

The time you invested on your engine, will payoff on the next one.

The knowledge you gained from this, will last you a lifetime

The money you spent, you can always earn again

But your dad... you only get one in life.... be thankfull he made it out ok.....
