Guy here in Grand Rapids had his SVT go up in flames today. The only hint that something was wrong with the car was the bright light indicator stayed on when he didn't have his hi-beams on. Turned the car off & went inside. Short time later he smelled smoke. The heat seperated the frame of the garage door from the brick. Good thing it wasn't in the garage! Looks like the fire started in the fuse box. Totally melted.

On a brighter note he might buy it back if they total it. I don't know why they wouldn't. EuroTour99 & I are gonna us some parts off it.

What parts will toy grab off from it ? I'm guessing the UIM / LIM is worth the most ? and the heads ?

Just the engine bay looks damaged. Tons of good parts. Yea UIM/LIM, skirts, rear bumper, doors, trunk, all interior. I just want the front caliper brackets. It's a 98 BTW.
