Yes Steve Im aware of the strikers and dizzies but wanted to make sure there wasnt any confusion as to which group he was referring to.. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]


Fact is everyone makes mistakes or oversights.. NO ONE is perfect. The best option is to do as what is being done whether its CRG or Vintage Cert (or both preferably) by educating everyone and trying to evaluate what was and wasnt used or possible.

Here is my LA car......



The tray appears to be pretty nice, making me wonder if its original, albeit the car is a 25k southern CA car.

Yes Napa68, the battery tray appears in above condition and the original clamp has been replaced but your bolt with 3/4&quot; captured washer is correct. That can be difficult to obtain.
That brings up a question from a LOS battery tray Steve showed as the battery clamp bolt was different from what normally noticed. Was a different bolt used sometimes at LOS vs. NOR?

Sorry as I have a typo! It should read &quot;That brings up a question from the LOS battery tray Mike1971 showed as the battery clamp bolt was different from what normally noticed.&quot; The difference being it should reference Mike's 2nd picture and not Steve's picture. Was that bolt something LOS used?
