LOl my college roomate had an old tempo that smoked him a few times. Under hood electrical fires RULE. he had smoke that started shooting out of his heater vents while driving.

nothing funnier than haveing a fire extinguisher in the cabin of a commuter car.

looks like ferd was using dell laptop type ABS computers.
