Not sure. The owner has not returned my phone call. Only info I have is what the site shows. Looks like he lost his buttt on it though. I'm tempted to call and see what is sold for. If I had not just bought another convertible I probably would have tried to buy it back from the auction.

Engine bay looks too clean for a engine fire, although something nasty happened under the passenger side dash. Electrical fire maybe?
He also managed to bounce something off of the left front fender/nose

The underhood insulation is burnt and hanging down. So there was a fire for sure. Yeah whole thing makes me sad.

Re: I'm in trouble... 92 Z03 Z28 Vert
I'm sure that is what happened. Strange part is typically the damage must exceed 75% of the value to total the vehicle out, and they said the damaged estimated at $7.5K, and that is less than the 75% of the price I sold it for. I think the poor dude lost his *** by not having adequate insurance?

Re: I'm in trouble... 92 Z03 Z28 Vert
Its for cleaning carpets and fabrics. Works well. Rub, scrub, remove. Depends on the level of staining or debris the amount of work you need to put into it. But basically you can just spray some on a cloth and rub into the fabric. Rub until you feel its clean. Do it again if it needs it.

Don't worry guys its in good hands now!
Needs a new engine harness, wiper motor, throttle cable, plenum top, hood insulation, etc. Worst part is it burnt the paint off of the firewall and bubbled the paint on the hood. As you may be aware it kind of made the metal show some surface rust. I don't know what to do.

Re: I'm in trouble... 92 Z03 Z28 Vert
Guys I've decided to sell the car. If anyone's interested in it as it is running and driving, I'll take $5500 for it.
It's going to need the lower front spoiler painted, new bumper, and LH fender repainted.
