Well from what i can see the fire didnt really get anything except the engine and the wiring so maybe i can get a new Engine/Harness from a donor truck but not sure yet..

Damn, that's crazy. Glad you got out without injury. If you ever find out what exactly caused this let us know.

I saw a car just spontaneous catch on fire at a gym that I use to work at. It was an older Nissan Maxiam. It started ticking and next thing you know it's dripping plastic and fire. Then it just went up. It was nuts.
