I quit using that horrid little plastic thingy (VV pet name for the
connection between the battery and the rest of the car) and replaced it
with a 40 amp RV circuit breaker. When I added a high volume blower fan
with a relay, I just added another 10 amp circuit breaker for it. A few
years ago I have a short in the turn signal wiring right behind the
steering wheel. In a 65 this is not a fused circuit. It smoked up pretty
good before the breaker opened up, but it shut off the current, before I
could get the battery unhooked. I think it is a worthwhile addition.
