    Holy literal statement Batman!!!

    Was that SHO on craigslist earlier this year? Looks ( a little ) familiar...

    I had a 1995 SHO 5-speed - loved that car! Here is what happened to mine...

    So what was the cause of the fire?? Gas tank leak / hot exhaust?? Looks like it started in the back??

    I owned the SHO for 4 years. I think the convertersplugged up and caught the floor on fire. Here is acouple pics of it.





    Here it is with black wheels. My wife says this is why it caught on fire because of me painting the wheels black. She hated the black wheels.
