Well, the battery could melt. I thought by 73, Morris Garage caught up with the rest of the world and went 12V neg.

My Midget was 12V positive ground. If I knew Delco alternators then, like I do now, it wouldn’t have stayed that way.

DR-You may need to get a couple of jars of Lucas Replacement Wire Smoke. It’s a thing.
