Pics from strongs

well had a little drive by today and snapped a couple of pics on the mrs cellphone.....must have been some serious heat and considering how close to the front offices it was its lucky noone was hurt.
















those pics are just showing the roof of the building they lost and thats some serious warpage.....











very sad but I guess it could have been alot worse.......and yes thats an EP3 under the cover in the last pic

Yes. Engines were undamaged. Mainly panel parts that were damaged. Heres a link to the informative post from a Strongs employee:
Strong On Fire??

Have a read of the closed thread.

I believe the person who set it straight was an employee of Strongs.

Re: Pics from strongs

yer that wearhouse has lots of panels in it as well as their glass. So it may be a bit hard to get a windscreen for a while.

They are lucky, because that building is only like 5m from their reception building etc, which does have a nice K series conversion sitting on the floor.

Hope they have it all sorted out again soon, because they are awesome for parts.

This thread can be closed also if mods wish, there isnt much point discussing it just thought the pics maybe of interest
