Hmm, Smells like teen troll. :roll:

My '68 MGB-GT used to catch on fire all the time, electrical shorting usually from the batteries under the rear seat.

(It was really just a shelf not a rear seat. And yes, there were two six volt batteries to make the 12 volts needed. One on the right side and one on the left for 'perfect" balance. The batteries were right next to the fuel tank.)

Alas, I died seven times in the fires, :shock: and the damage was horrific, No wait, it wasn't that dramatic, it just seemed that way at the time. :lol:

Hard stops would start the fires, but I eventually made a fire drill procedure that would put the fires out rather quickly. I also began carrying fire extinguishers in the car at that time. I still do.

Although the news media tells us that we are scared all the time, so that we need to watch the TV more, we're actually not. We adapt, we become more vigilant. You probably don't remember doing atomic air raid drills once or twice a day while in school. Or black-outs in coastal cities so the u-boats can't see the horrizon for targeting.
