Kanter just sent me their new catalog and they "claim" to have a reproduction battery that is correct for 1932. Have they made a false claim or is this battery in the original style?

What does their battery look like? They don't appear to have photos available for the different types of batteries that they offer. :confused: :confused: :confused:

It's too bad their website doesn't show all of the batteries, their new catalog (FREE) does. I just filled in the information on the web site and forgot about it until the mailman put it in my box about a week later.

Maybe the original style battery problem is getting better? Hope so. We won't know until you guys with the knowledge get a look at it. May be a lot of hipe and hot air, trying to sell something.

Are you listening Don? Maybe you won't have to make your own battery after all.

Yep, Just like bruce says, there are film strips for 1932 showing the delco chevrolet battery installed. It cant be any better then that. It works for me Junkyard dog. You need one for your 30, It could be a retrofit. Ya :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: bigl bigl

Yep, it could be better than that.......you could have the factory original 1932 Delco battery instead! But, hey, those Chevy script batteries are the cat's "meow" and they are really cool looking. And, they are more of the period than the modern type of Delco replacment battery that everyone is selling as being correct for 1932. yipp laugh laugh laugh
