Processes, Products & Techniques / Re: Battery Rebuild
« Last post by dkknab on March 23, 2024, 08:59:03 AM »
A few weeks ago I was dropping off a load of trash at the dump and saw this beauty sitting on a pallet. Ive begun the process of gutting the case. I opted to cut the bottom out to keep the top intact. For those of you that have done this by removing the bottom, I'm having trouble removing the plates and innards. Any tips and tricks anyone can share? Most of it is very reluctant to come out. Thanks in advance

Ryan, I have what appears possibly to be the same manufacturer repro. How did you end up getting the guts out going up from the bottom?

Your welcome John. Noticed this decades ago then like many things just started collecting data points to give us what we have today with solid evidence of these changes and the different versions.  To me this just adds to make a car a better representation of how the cars were built and that they are not all cookie cutter cars we sometimes see at shows or where ever

Jeff,
Got the D0AZ-D decal on today, used your pictures as a position reference.

The trunk wiring is all in and really nice original trunk filler panel is on it's way. One more step closer to almost Concourse!

Are you still looking for the breather cap?
Is this the style you need ?
What a wonderful use for file cabinets.

1969 Mustang / Re: 1969 coil springs

It's not something I have ever seen in 50 years of working on these cars. I have seen severely pitted coil springs fail and sag but never good ones.
Springs distort under a continuous load, compression in this case. That's a fact. I learned that over 50 years ago in school. Again, it's called "metal fatigue". I saw some of it in real time on cars and trucks in the same time period you didn't.
