First truck, '65 Chevy fleetside, 8' bed, three on the tree. 6 cyl that would drowned out the ignition if you splashed through a deep puddle.
I remember putting on a brand new muffler and the next day it poured rain.
Hit a puddle, ignition started sputtering and then
KAPOW! backfire split the brand new muffler right down the seam.
I also remember having to taking off the distributor cap to spray WD-40 to dry it out.
Ended up buying a can of wire sealer that was at the parts store.
Every tune up I would spray the cap and wires and it put a coating over them so water couldn't seep in.
