Default Devastated

So This Happened! I am absolutely devastated.

I have absolutely no idea if anything is recoverable or of potential use to anyone? Roll bar? differentials? transmission? transfer case? engine block? internal parts? tailshafts? leaf springs? mirror arms? chassis frames, bonnet hinges etc
I also had full hard top (Overlander style), rear spare carrier, soft top and frames.
Most of the body is warped, but possibly suitable for cuts??

CJ8 Overlander AMC 258, auto 904/999, extractors, AMC front & rear diff.

Insurance company has left it to the shed demolition crew to take away.
Like I said not sure if anything is salvageable, rather see it go to a passionate enthusiast rather than just scrap.

I just cant see myself rebuilding anything right now.
This is bloody hard just writing this.

That’s terrible, I am sure plenty of bits would be ok to reuse, better than scrap metal.

Good lord that is just awful. I really hope there is something salvageable from that Jeep so it can live on in some way. Good luck

Oh man that sucks - my heartfelt sympathy.
I lost my old Land Cruiser in a fire about 7 years ago.
It was a piece of shit but I still miss it.
