JW, the extra battery cable connection made it possible to use a different battery to run the car into my garage while I am waiting for the seat bottom to get replaced. The upholstery shop sent the car back to me with a dead battery. The ground cable would not reach my extra battery from a different car and the 2nd cable made it work fine. It was only temporary as the battery was able to recharge just fine.
I am still waiting for the upholstery shop to get the seat back. When that is done I need to replace the exhaust gasket between the intake and exhaust manifolds.

I agree I was lucky to get the fire out as quickly as I did.
