In case anyone hasn't seen it, very sadly the WRECTO-1 caught fire in January and was severely damaged. Luckily nobody was hurt.
DYFEA posted a video on YouTube where he goes over the damage in detail:

This was his last progress photo before the fire, he was working on the 59 fin swap and the car was looking really good, so this is a major setback for him:

He's still deciding whether or not to keep going with the project, or to sell what's left of it to someone else.
