'41 Chev battery bracket #46240 12/24/04 06:30 PM

Can I find a battery with the posts aligned so that I can still use the '41 battery bracket? I haven't been able to use the bracket since the posts are so close to the outside of the battery. The battery fits in bottom part, but I can't get the top bolts on. What are my options? I would like to keep the '41 bracket, if I can. Help. Thanks, Dan.

Your options probably are either to go back to 6 volts, or to use a universal battery bracket for the 12 volt battery. :( :( :( The Mangy Old Mutt "If It's Not Junk.....It's Not Treasure!"
