Default Re: Delco Battery Topper Resto
Rick you are correct with your comments but i copied a R89W NOS battery as that is what the Sticker is on a Reproduction battery topper. See the first Photo of the R89W NOS battery.
I think the R79 battery had a smooth finish on the top were the R89 had that grainy look.
But what is confusing is i found this R79 NOS picture with the red painted letters/
I am guessing that when the batteries were new in the car it did not have the red letters but when you replaced the battery later on and got one over the service counter they did have the red letters?
