This is a CF for us!!

Auto battery restoration
 

I also ordered a battery from Auto battery restoration some 8 weeks ago for my 70 Road Runner 440+6 and the owner just left me a message that he cannot fulfill the order. He stated that his supplier had cash flow problems and is in financial problems. He also stated that as a result he was cling his business.Bob

May be time for some of our innovative members to step in. Opportunity may be knocking. BTW, I NEED A BATTERY!!!! ;>)

How 'bout something like: send yr old repro battery in to have it refitted with new juice, or something like that!

Do they deduct points for using a battery topper hate to do that but cant find a battery for my june built z/28 either

Also the y77 used in the late 69 z28 cars had the negitive cable close to the fender and the positive next to the radiator correct ?

Funny you say that as the first thing I said when I heard the mfg of the batteries was being mismanaged was "who has the tooling"...maybe I should buy them out. He laughed and said there 100's of thousands in tooling and molds and that it was all in Mexico. I then said if it's in Mexico, then someone else owns it and I'm sure they'll make batteries to order. That's when he brought up the Licensing and additional costs.

I'm going to look into this further and have a few coals in the fire now.

Sweet! Good luck and keep us posted!!!

Yes you are correct. I misspoke regarding the indexing on the Y77. Y55's are reversed but Y77's are setup with the negative terminal out by the fender. Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.

Replying to Graeme's post. We will have to live with battery toppers and that is the way any judging will have to be I guess. If it does not exist we can't buy it so...................

again, this is a CF

we make everything else for these cars, but we can't get the right batteries?? WTF
