I was in Vancouver last week. On my way to the hobby shop, a tow truck passed by me with this on the back. I thought it was a late '60s Impala until I got closer. :rotz: It looks like it was in a shop/garage fire. :rotz:

I'll be the first to make a smartass comment, that'll buff out.
Looks like it had 3'' exhaust also. Big block car? Looks like a chop shop also from the looks of the surroundings.
Hey, you can hate the game but don't hate the player.

Nope, it's ICBC's main yard. ICBC is the car insurance/registration company in the province. All the wrecked cars go here.

Yeah.  I don't really love those Chevelles, but just about any decent old musclecar feels like a loss these days.

My uncle down in Florida would have a heart attack at those pictures.  :rotz: My bro's truck caught on fire when the previous owner had it, but it did not look that bad. :eek2: :eek2:
You think the garage roof collapsed onto the car during the fire? :shruggy: Only way I can see that kinda damage happening unless it went into a freakin' boiler fire.

Oh yeah, I've seen it happen before. Usually bigger shops do that kind of damage to the car (ie: crushing the roof) but I'm definitley putting my money on a shop/garage fire.

Since there is a van, SUV, and classic all burnt. Either a private shop or body shop? :-\

I doubt they are all from the same place. Like I said, all the wrecked cars from the Vancouver area go here.

The van looks burnt to about the same level though... :shruggy:
