>>From the 1989 200 TQ - Pearl White: Accident and fire

There's one thing to look out for when dismantling a burnt-out car, which
I've never seen mentioned on the list. It was mentioned in a TV programme
years ago, and I can't remember exactly, but-

**Wear rubber gloves when handling fire-damaged parts!!!**

Apparently, several components used in cars give off toxic substances when
burnt, which can penetrate the skin and cause blood poisoning and other
nasties. Not all components do this, but the risk is there and there's no
use taking chances with your health...

Good luck with your sad job otherwise.
