The odd thing was that my MGB had black ground wires going to every light and appliance on the car. Nice! It had two (or was it four?) tubular glass fuses for the entire car. Not so nice... The Lucas generator and starter looked well made and designed, but the brushes gave trouble on both, and then the commutators needed turning. The spares I kept had the same problem. The two six volt batteries in series, positive ground, was another silly idea. I replaced them with a single 12V battery. At least in those days you could push start it when it became necessary...
