I just got struck by lightning

['Cuda Hunter]

Here are some pics.  The lightning went in this antenna and out this drivers side front tire.  Didn't even use a stud on that one.  The other two tires were flat through a stud location.   
  Yeah, I know, the tires are shot anyway regardless of the lightning.  You would be surprised how much 4x4in you can do with bald winter tires!!

  Did the tires loose air slow or kind of blow out? It seems like the radio and some other electronics would have got dusted in the deal...........

 The Ruggles I knew had 4 kids, I'm not sure where they all went. Jim would be about 51, he had a brother Bill around 55, John would be around 50 and their sister Kathy would be around 58 or so......

That tire blew out with the bang.  Immediately no air.  The Rear drivers side went down in about 15 seconds and the rear passengers tire goes low in about 24 hours.

My Tachometer is toasted.  The antenna mount is melted.  I havn't dove into the mount yet, there might be a melted wire under there.  My speakers didn't work at all.  I removed the radio as it was a pos and need to reinstall a new one.  Not sure if the radio output was damaged or just the speakers yet.
