devastating fire again - D.J. van Arum - 09-12-2017

Six years after the fire it struck again, but now everything is lost, my three Sevens, spares, tools and my fathers collection of A30/35's and A90 Westminsters are gone. Hard to believe that it happend again. I put a photo on the Austin Seven Facebook page, will someone be so kind to put it here, ?thanks

Deepest sympathy to yourself and your father,I do so hope that there's something to be salvaged from the debris that inspires you to rebuild.
Some years ago fire consumed 600+ bikes at Bham Motorcycle Museum,the ensuing years have restored it to as good, if not better,than before so please don't loose hope.
Triumph from adversity,wish you all the best for the future.

What a disaster, my thoughts are with you ,having had an experience myself of seeing all of my"loves" lost in a fire not of my causing several years ago. 13 cars including,2 kit car projects under development, my AJS motorcycle and an  E type Jag. I cannot get your picture from  Facebook, but this was my workshop warming up Boscombe !!
