San Diego Veterans Fire

The Fire Story...

Around 5:00 P.M. on Sunday, November 11, 2012, Jason called his partners, Mike & James, to let them know their shop was on fire. They couldn't believe it. They went straight to the shop to see for themselves and sure enough, the fire trucks were already there, fighting the blaze. They were unable to save the shop, however. The under-coded electrical in one of the shops had sparked and caused several businesses a lot of damage. None took the hit quite as hard as these hard-working veterans.

Jason Sharp & Mike Beuoy are both retired Coast Guard veterans. James "Red" Pace, a combat wounded veteran of the Navy, assisted at the shop. Jason is getting married in May and was excited to see an upswing in business to help pay for the wedding. Now, all the tools the trio would use to fix up the cars at their shop, are useless. The boys had just recently given their shop a name, Hot Rod Rescue, inspired by their time serving our country in the Coast Guard. Jason, Mike & James all look forward to moving their shop to a new location, when they have managed to get the tools they need to start building hot rods again.
