| Truck fire caused by faulty muffler installation by muffler shop in New Brunswick |
| Last load up preparing to leave Moncton and back to Edmonton, April 28,1986, note the light-box on bottom right of truck box. |
| About an hour west of Montreal we noticed smoke in the cab. A violin was crushed in the hurry to empty the truck. All this was in complete darkness, only light was from cars passing by and a small flashlight. |
| Hot muffler exhaust burns through 2" truck bed and almost right through 3/4" plywood, if our light box was not in the position it was, it would have been a total loss. |
| When we stopped red hot coals were dropping from under the truck box, We got lucky that night. |
