A coil in the Trunk...


Cold Blue

Recommended Posts

What the?? I bought Cold Blue, my 1948 Plymouth Special Deluxe about 6 months ago. After getting her home, and looking at most everything, I noticed that an ignition coil had been installed in the trunk, just behind the spare tire, and wires going to it. But there is no main lead plugged into the coil top, it's just open. My 48 has been rewired to be a 12 volt system. For the life of me, I cannot figure out why an ignition coil would be installed in the trunk, or what it's purpose would be. You boys got any ideas? Thanks, Blue.

 It would be neat to have flames belch out the exhaust pipe! 

 

 

I’d dig it, but Be aware that not everyone will think so...

I was once following an old ford to a car show. His car was equipped with flame throwers in both exhaust pipes. I was several car lengths behind him when he cut loose with a firefart. The stench was overwhelming. I backed off even further and made up my mind on the spot to never install such a device.
