From: "docaaron1" <docaaron1@...> ... Back in the early 70's when I bought my first Lotus, I did a little research on car colors and their visibility....
OK then it wouldn't be necessary to go directly to the negative of the 12V battery; any good ground on the chassis would suffice. Also would then be highly...
