Fire Sale on Prospect Park West
About 2:30 this afternoon this car burst into flame at PPW and 14th st.
The fire department arrived in a few minutes and extinguished the flames without anyone being injured .
As i was taking some photos a woman from the neighborhood mentioned she has seen a series of cars on different blocks with for sale signs and the same writing on the windows .
She said it's probably someone buying used cars and trying to re-sell them by parking them all over the neighborhood .
The owner who has it up for sale is in for a surprise

What shape are the tires and wheels in?

If interested you better hurry as they won't be there in the AM

I thought it was an insurance job. The car has been sitting there for a couple of days and it had tags on it before. Tonight, the plates had been removed and the way the trunk deck looked, it seemed like they were ripped off in a hurry. Plus, maybe it could have been a short or something, but it's odd it just spontaneously burst into flame.

Probably not the best location and I'm short 2 milk crates. Thanks for the pics though.
Howdy, Stranger!
