Or ANY Chevy!! lol. That's actually how we got one of our TCs. It was going to be a fire dept training car too, but one of the fireman thought it was too cool of a car to burn. They did totally destroy the most perfect raven leather interior I have even seen, but we were able to save the running gear. I can't even look at those pics anymore. What a terrible way for a TC to go....

In the real world,these cars really aren't anything special to the majority.Otherwise,we'd have aftermarket parts like the Stang guys.We're a minority.The Turbo Coupe getting torched was just another old car to the biggest part of the population,,,,and firemen.

The car was probably either a donation or an impound that the PD gave the FD.
