Dry rot. A Bricklin in flames is just too tragic for marshmallows. Fuel lines up to almost 30 yrs old are very risky. Other potential causes of impromptu roadside weenie roasts were exhaust manifold

That's sad looking, but restorable--as they all are. As an observation about Ebay listings it is interesting that the description says "completely stock" in two different places yet in the pictures o
