The CTC extinguishers look good fitted up in an old milt vehicle. But i'm with Wesk I always carry atleast 1 modern extinguisher in a handy place just incase.
CTC was a very nasty substance. It would destroy the kidneys of those with prolonged exsposure... eg those whos job was to refill them. When I was going to school some kid found a refill bottle of the stuff and decided it would be a good idea to sniff it to try and get a high... it killed him!
