Can someone please help me. I need some details/drawings of the under floor battery carrier/box for a 1926 Superior K Tourer. Some of the original bits are still there however I would like to restore my car to as close as it was built.

Hi Peter Moody

Doesn’t look like anyone has given you any help yet. Here are a couple of shots of a 1925. (If you make any reference to the maintenance on this battery box the pictures will instantly disappear). HA!

Any questions you have can be referenced to the pictures.

What is not obvious from the pictures, is a brace, in the lower right of the second picture, that goes toward the front of the car and is attached to the frame rail.

Thanks Ray. Just one small question, is there a clamp to hold the battery orr dos it rely on its own weight?

Originally they had a hold down. As the batteries we get now are not the exact dimensions of the old batteries, it wouldn't fit anyway. I suggest a piece of wood shaped as a "T" to wedge in by the battery and fill up the space provided.
