It’s a miracle!


Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, a 1968 Chevy Camaro SS rolled out of the wreckage of a fire which devasted Guilford Young College’s Trade Training Centre in Glenorchy, Australia last week. It was an amazing moment since many assumed the classic American muscle car which is owned by an automotive teacher was completely consumed by the blaze. What they didn’t realize is Chevrolets are like a rock and not only survive fires but drive through actual tornadoes.

After conducting an investigation into the inferno, fire authorities concluded it was started by an overheating car engine. The vehicle in question had just been driven to the building and parked inside. CCTV footage released to Australian media shows smoke pouring out from the engine compartment of a car in the workshop. In under 10 minutes, the smoke is joined by flames. Apparently, that vehicle was being stored in the facility along with the ’68 Camaro and others.
