I am very sorry to hear about this. I do believe that the NYSpeed community should have a fundraiser, BBQ event, Paypal account, etc. Seriously, I am willing to assist in anyway. Being a person who had a benefit for himself knows how these events help with getting over life events financially. ---

From Facebook “[Swiderski Motorcar](https://www.facebook.com/pages/Swiderski-Motorcar/115347991877162?ref=stream) Waste oil pre - heater and I was using peanut oil. If I hadn’t run out of waste motor oil this never would have happened. It’s just been so cold this year the heater has been running way more than usual and used more oil than it ever has. The pre - heater ignited the peanut oil, and 5 gallons of flaming peanut oil went across the shop. It went from a small fire that looked contain able to out of control and flames billowing out of everywhere in under 5min.” ---

> [@2TurboZ](#): > > In for whatever fundraising you guys feel would be best. > > Not trying to pile on, but I do have a serious question. If there happened to be no fire insurance, are the cars that were in the shop covered by anything? \ All his personal cars that where in there. NO. if a customer car had insurance then it would be covered by there insurance. (if the cars where still financed say threw afc or dfc, then they would but i know they had been payed off.) Im up for some kind of fun raiser. I had one of his cars at my house im going to try and finish it up so he has something to sell asap. ---

I will help in anyway with a fundraiser. If you want to do a cruise / bbq or something like that I will donate the food as I have in the past. It may be a bit cold for that currently and the sooner that he can have support the better. ---

[http://www.gofundme.com/](http://www.gofundme.com/) ^ That site works really well and I’ve used it for theChive donations before. Unlike a paypal account people donating actually see the progress and the donation totals rise. They only take 5% which I think works out better than a paypal donation account since this wouldn’t quality for 501c3. If we want to go this route I’d suggest either an admin like Josh or Mike do it or someone who’s close friends with Justin. ---

I would be willing to sponsor something that would help Justin. I don’t know him or ever even met him, but I am willing to do what I can to help out. @LZ1 Usually auto dealers/repair shops carry “Garagekeepers” insurance. This covers the dealer for any damage incurred to customers vehicles while in custody of the dealer. ---

I had to run to NT yesterday so I cruised past. It’s really a shame. I had some good times at that building when Jeff ran Elite Automotive out of it. Sorry to hear, Justin. I hope everything works out for you. ---

I think the fundraiser should consist of throwing flaming rocks at TheBlue. I’d pay to do that. ---

If someone sets up a donation page like a ‘fundme’ or whatever, I will donate and spread the word. This breaks my heart knowing he has a family and kids and could lose everything. ---
