The part I was thinking about was the rear wiring harness. Originally it ran 
from the VR out under the LR fender and back into the engine on the left side. 
This meant that it was very likely to get crunched in any LR accident. Around 
70 or 71 they moved it so that it exits rearwards from under the back seat and 
runs under the cargo floor to the engine. Any accident which would get this far 
has already completely destroyed the car.
