Re: Safer Fuel Tank.

I had the misfortune of being rear ended in a MkV Alpine in the late
seventies. The impact separated the cross-over tube from the right side tank,
spilling the contents of the gas tank into the trunk and on to the road.

I still shudder to think what might have been if there was an ignition source.
