XPAG Developments Fire

Post by Steve Simmons » Fri Jun 25, 2021 7:36 am

I just received an email that Peter Edney's shop, XPAG Developments, has burned to the ground. What a heartbreaking loss. It's rumored that he will rebuild. Unfortunately I don't think any of these cars are coming back. :(

Yes, very sad: it was caused by an electrical fault, apparently...in the foreground the roll-over bar could be Peter's TB racer, and several other cars, probably customers', were destroyed. Speaking to someone who has been there, everything aluminium has just melted. The chassis will be bent & twisted, but are probably repairable.

In the adjacent barn were a lot of exotic animals used by a local childrens' entertainer...

BTW this happened a month ago, but news is only filtering through now.
