“POINTY FUSES”

I have a history with pointy fuses, but we’re going to skip that and go right to noting that way back when, Lucas fuses had pointed ends such as those shown here.

These were in the RHD BN2 that Kent Lambert and I recently acquired from the estate of the long-term (57 years) owner, and it’s a good bet they they are the car’s original fuses.  Never mind that they are both 35 amp fuses instead of one 35 amp and one 50 amp.  Sometimes “these things happen.”

If these don’t excite or at least amuse you, you may not be cut out for the concours game, because for concours-correctness you’re going to need pointy fuses.  Or maybe you’d rather go lie down for awhile and see if the urge passes.
