Burned up Van

Howdy pardner!
I had a nice ole ford van from the 80s. It was one of those big family vans with a couch in the back that turned into a bed. It has capn seats and all. I had a CB in it. I used to love listen in to "Be my Baby" on da radio after picin up ma son from boy scouts. That is the song I met Paula with.

This van was loaded with kewl stuff. I has ole soda cans in it, ole fries from McDonalds, a gallon of spoiled milk, a loaf o moldy bread, a dozen rotten eggs an melted butter. The prize was ma cooler witch once held meat in it, but ended up having rotten meat in blood and sick water. What a mess! Every time I hit a bump, it was ALL over...

I used to love haullin to Michighgan an back on family vactions to see ma folks...

Well the deal is this... we was in watchin cowba movies with lil Jeffery an when we come back out, the fire department was there with the van. Our beautiful van had burned up! It burned into a mess! I cried and you should have seem lil Jeffery! Are all Ford vans firiery death traps?

Any ideas what could have caused the fire?

Thanx for answerin, Don

Burned up Van

many fords in the 80s thru into the 90s have been recalled due to fires . the cause was faulty ignition switchs (the thing you put your key into to start the van) these switches can short out and catch fire . this is the only fire related problem that I`ve heard of . I hope this will help.
