I got supposedly the very first sealed R-59 ever sold to the public. It's been in the car since I got it, no sign of leakage and looks as correct as the other repro i have that isn't sealed... (which is over 4 years old and still working fine I may add.) The only difference is you can't remove the caps...I disconnect one cable when the car sits, and just reconect it when I want to start the car. At one time I thought it went dead on me, but it ended up just being a little corrosion on the post and cable from sitting, and it wasn't making good contact when i pushed the spring-ring on by hand. Oh, and it does have an authentic looking "Delco Eye" in it too, unlike the fake looking one on the toppers. I'd recommend it.
