All 1932 Chevrolets had a battery box. Without a battery box were did you locate the battery?

Whenever you need parts, check the Filling Station's catalog because they have lots of parts for your 1932 including a reproduction of the original battery box.

Were you marked down for missing battery box or incorrect battery box or improper battery? Something needs to hold the battery under the floor board.

Remember that the 33 box looks almost the same as 32 but it has a shield in front to stop rocks from hitting the battery. For a time all that was made is a 33.

I couldnt find one at the time I replaced mine. I made a mold to press one out. Its a stamped part that is about 4x9 inches long with three long 3/8 inch groves .Both ends bend up one side is rivited to the crossmember and the other to a two piece bracket that is riveted to the side of the frame.Wasnt aware of any other box. I still have the mold but I think the filling station now make this part.
