This is a true story and might have happened to other people over the years in different types of cars. The speedster I was driving needed gas so I got gas. I was borrowing it and I didn’t fully latched the front hood. I was blessed and lucky on the interstate it blew up and hit the car behind me. It damage to the car behind me but it could’ve been a real disaster because it was on a busy expressway in Phoenix.
I retrieved a hood and there was no complications with the car the hood hit thank goodness just some body work.
The experts and talented people in Scottsdale, Vintage Motorcar, came Up with an excellent idea of having a kill switch. Simple, it’s a small little button that has to be pushed in all the way because the hood is shut fully. It will not start unless the hood is fully closed.
Has anybody ever tried this?
I Would suggest it if other people borrow your car and put gas in it .
