I’ve been hearing that there has been a massive fire at the Roadster Factory. Unable to confirm it but I’ve gotten it from several sources.
 
Sad to hear that.Horrible thing to happen to the owner/employees on
Christmas day.Tough way to start out the New Year.
Is there anybody near there that could let us know if it was covered by
insurance,& if not,is there a way to help them out?
 
Such a tragic loss.

How can BCF members help?
 
they are saying on "another" forum that this is probably fatal to TRF, though i will still be listening to hear if there is anything that can be done.
 
This is a huge loss to our community! Hope they are somehow able to make a come back. The article did say anything about cause - does anyone know yet or have you heard what the cause may have been, or is it too early?
 
Basil (or whoever finds out first) -- as soon as you hear what we can do to help rebuild, please stick it to the top of one (or more) pages. An email blast would likely be welcome too.

I tried to call them, but no answer and mail box is full (not surprising).
 
Customers received this letter in today's email from TRF:

That's really cool that after all he's been through that he's asking
for people to donate to local fire departments.I'd be interested to know
if his losses were covered by insurance,& that he & his crew will be OK.
 
Is there any mechanism for people to make a donation that is not an online system? I have pictures of dead presidents and a checkbook - neither of those fit thru the internet but I certainly would like to contribute...
 
I’m happy to say that the British Motorcars of New England https://bmcne.org/ held our annual after holidays party Sunday. We had a 50/50:raffle and we were able to donate $315 to the fund. The winner donated his winnings back to the charity.
