Jim,
That is a handy lucas option, I have had occasion to pull the key on the
freeway so the passenger could get into the center console. I thought this
was a Lucas design feature now you tell me it's not?

Tom, et al:
Yes, our original Lucas brake light switches contacts are "wet" ...
so, let's all start a new thread about the "Lousy Lucas Electrics" and how
the
Lucas engineers did not anticipate synthetic brake fluid, 50 years before it
existed.
However ... on another note, I just had a personal Lucas part fail!
Is anyone surprised? Probably not. The ignition switch in my 1957 Minx 1
has
decided to allow my key to fall out. What a piece of garbage! It only
lasted
49 years and hundreds of thousands of miles/use. Lousy, damned cheap Lucas
junk! I think NOT!
