I think you was very lucky it didnt melt away ......So a little smoke damage is nothing , could have been painted and closer to the heat ......

i no its just a big set back the problem is it was right next to the fire you cant see it but the sliding door side the right back has had the heat from the door breaking in and flames was against the van but it is being brought down to hastings and i going to spending most nights down there to get it bk on sceduel

It looks like you got off very lightly! looks like it could of been far worse!

as much as it sucks, I'd be thankful that your van is still in one piece and can be saved, with what looks like not too much work!

yes i am very happy the van is ok and not like the outher car just a dissopointment. lost a lot of stuff that was in the work shop where the car went up so i have contacted lots of people on the late bay and all have got parts waiting for me so when we get back on track we can finish it off but first show i hope will be big bang
