87 Bird $600 Reply #4 – April 13, 2009, 09:35:12 PM Yea, never really know what else could be fried, or maybe it was an outside source, like parked his car too close to a campfire or something. Never really know 'till you check it out, and to save another fox is always worth it. Quote Selected

It just looks like the tail light lens fell off, like lots of them do, and the guy duct taped it back on. It fell off again and the tape left a lot of residue. At least that's what it looks like to me, not a fire. Quote Selected

87 Bird $600 Reply #9 – April 15, 2009, 06:14:27 PM Ever seen what a SMALL fire does to painted metal? That's a LOT of white to be the glue from tape...Way too much of it on the left side. The pic IS garbage, just like every other pic on Craigslist; a reason I would never buy anything long distance from that site... Quote Selected
