From Firehouse.com: A company founded by Neil Young is facing a lawsuit over a fire in the San Francisco Bay Area that authorities say started in a vintage car the rocker had converted into a hybrid vehicle.
The San Jose Mercury News reports (http://bit.ly/ytJtkW) that Unigard Insurance Co. sued LincVolt LLC this week, accusing the company of negligence for converting the 1959 Lincoln Continental to run on electricity and a biodiesel-powered generator.
The suit seeks nearly $500,000 that Unigard says it paid to the owner of a building damaged in the 2010 blaze in San Carlos.
Fire officials say the blaze started in the car, dubbed the LincVolt. Young converted the car into a hybrid vehicle in a highly-publicized project to promote fuel-efficiency. http://www.firehouse.com/news/10616933/neil-youngs-company-sued-over-warehouse-fire
Some cars are not meant to be green cars and a Lincoln Continental is one of them. It was born to be a gas guzzler and it should be allowed to be a gas guzzler.
And now, the fire put far more bad chemicals into the environment than the Lincoln ever would.
Sometimes, you should leave some things alone and a 1959 Lincoln Continental is one of them.
Another Drone Theory! "Conspiracy"????
