Ferrari Testarossa catches fire in California
This Italian classic damaged the walls of the house when it caught fire. The car's owner was reportedly an electrical engineer, but it was now charred. Debuting at the 1984 Paris Motor Show, the Ferrari Testarossa was one of the most eye-catching cars the Italian manufacturer had made at the time.

Ford/Ghia concept car catches fire during transport
Imagine Driving this car to the 2024 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, mingling with fans and other priceless cars, only to have your dream car burn up before you get home, sounds like a nightmare, right? That's what happened a few days ago in Monterey, California. If you think I wish Marmon hadn’t sacrificed himself! You can relax at the thought, but the truth is just as pleasant: The 1979 Ford Probe I Ghia concept car that once graced the auto show's wedge-shaped display of concepts and prototypes no longer exists. The Probe I was a collaboration between Ford and Ghia that explored aerodynamics while adopting the then-popular wedge-shaped design. With skirted rear wheels, a prominent greenhouse, and turbo four-cylinder power, the Probe I was a nod to the post-Embargo era’s need for fuel efficiency, and a fast aerodynamic design to meet those needs. Ford claims the Probe I is "a typical car of the late 1980s or later," with an…
