It sounds like it went up in flames pretty fast. Its good that they could get out in time when they smelled the smoke. Sad to see that happen to someone, but glad to hear they are ok.

O MAN, I could cry
I had a 68 that burned, I fixed it, lots of glass work.
When I saw the pic I could smell the fiberglass burn again at my desk, something you will never forget.
