Bill, I would have to say yes. I had a 1985 BMW 325e that had a short that fried the entire fuse box/electrical system and the insurance company totaled that car.

I would venture to say that the fuse panel BBQ is a chevy truck.

Thanks for posting !!

Some of them 'fixes' look familiar from back when I was a poor 17 year old !!
The vise grip on the battery terminal...the can around the exhaust pipe w/radiator hose clamps.

The best was my friend's nova with most of a tastykake box used as water pump gaskets !! He did not even trim the excess box !!!

That actually looks to be an antitheft device for a frequently stolen catalytic converter. Looks like it is designed to prevent the sawzall from getting a bite on anything solid. And it's tethered to the frame crossmember above.

The city of Los Angeles is known by this name, but in truth it isn’t the city’s actual name. The official name of the Californian city is El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reyna de Los Angeles del Rio Porciuncula, which translates as The Town of Our Lady Queen of Angels of the Porciuncula River.

The city of Bangkok, capital of Thailand, has the longest name in the world. Surprised? In fact, Bangkok’s real name is Krungthepmahanakhon Amonrattanakosin Mahintharayutthaya Mahadilokphop Noppharatratchathaniburirom Udomratchaniwetmahasathan Amonphimanawatansathit Sakkathattiyawitsanukamprasit—totalling 168 letters!
