Going out in a blaze of glory, Kevin’s wagon suffered some fatal damage last week on “Spirit Trail”. He writes:
Even at the time of death she looked gracious….apart of me is gone – it represented me… plus made me feel young. I have mourned now for three days and wait for the insurance adjuster to show up…I hate to give her up. I suspect a small fuel line leak, that I had been chasing because of smell…either the distributor or plug wire ignited the gas. The fact I was headed down hill only fed the fire with more gas. One fire ext. wasn’t enough….so carry two folks!
Well, here is part of me and who I was. It’s sad to say… she even looked great on fire…but very sad. I suspect a small fuel leak that we had smelled but hadn’t found and a short from the ditributor or right side plug wire. I’ve been in mourning for three days. I will not be replacing her.
