Man I hate that for him to. He is a hell of a guy to deal with he was actually in the process of making me an adapter plate for my ecotec. I was suspose to pick it up Monday. If anybody talks to him and he needs any help with anything let me know. All I have is his shop number and I guess it won't do me any good now.

From what I've heard it got the shop area but didn't get the showroom as bad. They said that they were pushing a buggy out and it was flaring up while they were trying to save it. I heard that he was grinding on something and the sparks caught something on fire.... :(

No one was injured but the building is in pretty bad shape. The roof is pretty well burnt completely away. A lot of machining tools were lost, a motorcycle, a trike, a couple buggies had some damage. He is insured but not sure what all is covered.

I stopped in to see if he needed to store anything in my garage. He seemed to be in pretty good spirits but you know it has to be hard on him.

Here is where the fire dept. cut through the door instead of just lifting.

Some stuff lying around from where they fought the fire.

This building is 80 feet or so long and with the warehouse over 100' wide and every inch has smoke damage or actual fire damage.

Any Pictures of the Stalker Frame that was inside the shop? That was mine, he was welding tree bars on it for me. I havent been down there yet but he said he thought it was ok. I hope he gets the shop fixed, hopefully the insurance wont try and screw him.

Just smoked up from what he told me... Most of the parts he has are not hurt..just smoke on the outside of the packages. Might be some cheap parts in a few days..
