A 51-year old man from Bloomfield Township lost his classic 1974 Lamborghini Espada as well as half of his home, which he had just sold to a new owner a week ago, when the vintage car exploded in his garage on Friday. According to officials, the man was trying to start up the classic four-seater Lamborghini in the garage when it exploded and erupted to flames, which quickly spread to the rest of the house. The cause of the explosion has not yet been determined.
Luckily, the 51-year old man as well as his mother and a dog that were in the house at the time of the accident escaped unhurt. Not surprisingly, neither the owner of the Lamborghini or the home's new owner were in the mood to comment on the incident. Watch the video report after the jump.
