Default Re: Reproduction Battery Warning

I guess that is a possibility. If they use UPS and they have had damage claims such as yours, then perhaps they need to re-think how they package and ship. These collector cars are just too valuable to risk using parts that have the potential for disaster. Bottom line: be careful, check things over closely and don't leave the battery in the car!

I love the optimas!
I put them in everything I own.
I know they look new, but damn I cant bear to put lead acid batteries near any of my vehicles

I grabbed an R-59 lookalike (doesn't have the Delco script on top?) from a pile of scrap batteries. Not really expecting to use it anytime soon, but it's nice knowing it's there for when the GTO is eventually done...
