[Tigers] putting out fires

[Will Seay]

Michael,

Don't think I have ever seen a nicer example of the Rootes fire extinguisher -
very nice.  Would suggest that you keep it for it's looks alone and not plan to
use it as a fire extinguisher.  Those old fire extinguishers contained carbon
tetrachloride which is toxic in itself.  And introducing carbon tetrachloride
into a hot fire will release phosgene gas which can be lethal.

I finally got one of these.. been wanting one for ages.. sometimes they have
costs to much.. often they are missing the brackets and often not in nice
condition... I got this a few months back.. and after fearing it lost in
post (it had been 3 months 2 weeks since it was sent) it arrived... nice

It is the smaller of the extinguishers that were available.. now where to
mount it.. on the trans tunnel?

show part only.. though it is full
