    That would suck, not just for the lost $$ but as we all know, the hours upon hours put into a restoration.....grinding back a weld, sanding till your fingers bled etc.

    Saw a Navara 4WD twin cab roll in the 90s due to a rope holding motorbikes come loose. I was about three cars back coming from Healesville to Lillydale area (Vic) when that flapping rope we all saw in traffic for the last 20 clicks, finally wrap around the tailshaft and possibly handbrake cable and just lock up the rear at 90kmh. I always think of it when I see a loose rope and try and alert the driver who usually looks at me like WTF?

    Any theories as to why the nosecone is inverted? Would that be fire related and just dropped? The fire looks all underneath so I don't think they smashed it to get the bonnet open to get to it
