Finally pulled the 69 SWB Step out of the garage today. I drove around the cul-de-sac a couple of times at it seemed fine. I drove down the rode and back, and it shut off as I pulled in the drive. I smelled something burning. My Positive battery cable was too close to the header and burnt up. I got a new cable to night and will put it on in the morning. Do ya;ll think that could have caused any other damage I can't see?
