Restoration Precautions...

Authorities were called after the Warren County man noticed the World War II era explosives inside the car's heater box while he worked on the mini's engine.

Musta been a terroristsic import--:highly_amused:
 
I can matter of factly say that no ordinance was found in the disassembly of this Healey__including the heater box (which since 1986 is not even in the car).

On the first start after 20 years mine kicked-out a flaming mouse nest from the exhaust and deposited it under the recently removed hard top that then caught fire. Luckily it was just the lining. Fire extinguishers do come in handy.
