If they had spent less time dicking around recording it and more time trying to get a fire extinguisher, maybe they could have saved more of the car than they did.
I say this because the camera guy was all up under the hood zooming in on the flames that had just started around the firewall (ironic). That's when they should've started putting it out.

Shocker,
A heavily home modified car went up in flames! I feel bad for him, not really. I just wanna laugh.

The problem with America is stupidity.
I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment
for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety
labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

I'd just let my baby burn too. Insurance check and new car sounds real sweet to me.

No kidding! There was a business just across the street. You know they had a fire extiguisher in there. It would have arrived alot sooner than the fire department.

thats sucks, but as noted before, they were stupid about putting it out.
i would have jumped up on the motor and started pissing while the other dude ran and got a fire extinguisher

Does that look staged to anyone else. I mean come on you just happen to have a camera when your car suddenly catches on fire. Yet as it burns you don't try to put it out. Then you just relax on the lawn while the fire engulfs the entire car. Hmmmm I don't know about that. That fire extinguisher didn't even look like it worked. Better hope the Insurance Company doesn't check this thread

He was probably too dumb to know you have to take the pin out of the extinguisher...
