It's amazing that your shop was airtight enough to put it out- Sure would have had a different result in my shop!
You may recall I had the same thing happen a couple months ago- burned the entire cab.

Happened at midnight, luckily the only neighbor still awake had seen the fire out of the corner of his eye as he was on his way to bed.

We put $2,500 with the $7,000 insurance settlement, and bought a '99 F350 quad-cab 4x4 diesel last weekend.
