[TR] Roadster Factory Christmas day fire

[Steve Thornton]

Dave et al-


Words matter. So do facts.

The “valuable cars” were sold as part of Charles’s estate closure. The cars saved from the fire included a TR3, a body shell TR6 and a Spitfire race car that was bought by John Swauger and gifted back to Albert and TRF.

If you have evidence of arson, say it, if you feel so compelled. Otherwise, your words are hollow, and perhaps actionable.

Good taste requires compassion and kindness at a time like this- in my humble opinion.

Given how the people in the Roadster Factory Investment Program were treated after Charles Runyon died, it would not surprise me if this fire was deliberate but done in a way that will not arouse suspicion.  I suspect the insurance payout will be much more than the living business would have brought in a sale.  And coincidentally, the really valuable cars were in a different building and seemed to have survived.
