As far as the fire department at the Cook car a spectator called 911. It came from El Mirage city, took about 30 minutes to get there. SCTA later contracted with a service company for fire services. It's hard to say if the  FD had been on site if it could have been saved as it was a hot and large fire. The Vega body was melting down over the car with no way to pull it off.

I know what the car is, saw it today.

No way of telling if the Vega would still be here is those in charge had made the same contracts they did the month before.

Some people have been heard to say that the blower in the picture might not be the type that ends up running in the car.

And the owner has a past presidents sir name... to help some of you out.
