[Tigers] Tiger Gas Tanks

[Frank Simer]

Fire yikes... I got rid of that crossover tube straight away... and have a
firewall built in my trunk...when I stripped my tiger down and saw that pipe
behind that 25 pound bumper I freaked.... funny it did not bother me when
driving a tiger in 76-78.... it did now that I am no longer in my
bullet-proof 20's... other than being eaten as some large animal's meal -
fire is my next feared item of  'consumption"
