Was the top the only thing you lost? That looks pretty bad.

It was the only thing I lost other than a rebuilt 948 sitting under a
workbench. It was my Dad's garage. Nobody was hurt, but the damage to the
garage and smoke in the house was extensive. Several nice cars were lost.
Not ready to go into details yet. Might put some pictures up in the future.
Need to give it some time.
Thanks,
Brian
