That's why you never carry/store gas bottles in enclosed spaces. I am surprised it didn't explode when he started the car.

Oh and, it'll buff out :)

He smelled the gas but still drove the truck out of the garage? And then he put down the window?

Reminds me of the crazy German neighbour we had in Bris. Klaus had a bright yellow VK wagon on straight LPG. We arrived home one day to find it sitting at the bottom of his driveway. Turns out he walked into his garage to find it full of gas. He *very slowly and carefully* opened the roller door by hand, and pushed the car out and as far away from the house as possible. It stayed there about two weeks.

thanks!
Matto :)

WOW - how he got away with such little injury is a miracle. 

I'd be buying a lotto ticket if I was him!

Nah ... don't lock me out ... I own a Nissan PULSAR ... never fit an acetalyne tank in one of those!  Barely fit a weeks shopping in it ... reckon I could afford that one that's pictured though.  Never had air-con before.

Duchess has one and it's that colour ... I think she has more panels on hers though ...  ;D
