Prolly ... fortunately the outer body is a monocoque and those can be reworked. Kinda worrisome how many fires lately. I remember a friend of mine several years ago who was a mechanic at Rensselaer (he's retired now) told me about the numerous fires they were having back then with oil-soaked air filters (which weren't getting cleaned) and pools of fuel on the floors as a result of cylinder leaks. I'd hate to think that an old, known problem is back once again. :(But 70 and a few of her sisters are going to require extensive rebuilding if they come back at all. |
