Default Do you have fire extinguishers handy?

My HMV is insured with Haggarty, which used to be Silverwheels (I think). This morning's customer e-mailing featured an ad for fire extinguishers in classic cars. Which leads me to ask the collective, do you have working extinguishers in your HMVs?

Typically, my HMVs roll with a period correct blue Ansul-brand ABC extinguisher. My car has two commercial extinguishers, and every few years I take stock and get any expired ones recertified. I'd rather have one and not need it than need one and not have it.

I recall there was a member of MLU whose clothes caught fire while he was cutting/welding/grinding. And it killed him.
