Sorry for your lose.
I made a post in here that glitched and didnt post in this thread earlier
like every one else i agree with them.
It looks like your loom cought on fire right around where the splices to extend the harness is. If the splices were side by side and shorted out it would do this in no time at all.

I think it was the splice going from the starter system because there is a high amp fuse or direct wire to power always hot its the black/blue white/black wire coming from the starting system looks like the splice came apart possibly on that system then once one wire shorts they all get hot melt into each other and fuse together making things worse. your car looks fixable from the pictures hard to tell though.
