Hot car for sale (not stolen hot, like really hot)
 
Last Friday, I left the shop around 7:30pm. Later that night, I got a phone call from an unknown number. Just a couple of minutes later I got another phone call from an unknown number.

So I check my voicemails. First is from the security company saying that there was a motion sensor alarm. The second call was from the Maple Grove fire department saying they've detected a fire.

So I quickly drove to the shop and this is what I saw...

I saw my boss Brian, and I asked him what happened. He said that a Buick was on fire.

Indeed, it was...

And then it got towed away.

We don't know exactly what happened. The car was in for a lower intake gasket, and thats pretty routine.

Anyway, that was the only car that was serious damaged. All the other cars in the shop that night have smoke damage, and no other major damage to the shop. It could have been alot worse.

Thanks to the MGFD for saving the day!

Holy sheep shit. Probably had some roaming cows that ended up in there farting, and someone tried to light a cigarette?

If it was in the middle of being repared, the fuel rail has to come off, gas gets everywhere even with the fuel pressure released.
