Those are Mopar application batteries and not Ford. You will have a hard time selling those to any Ford enthusiast because they are reverse post to how a Ford application battery has it's positive and negative post's orientated . I think Mopars have their battery on the opposite side to what a typical Ford application is. I wish you the best of luck with the finding a new home for the batteries.

thank you for the help

are they at least worth what a new battery would sell for now?

and do you have any knowledge of Rebat executive batteries for cobras?

thanks again

Maybe value to a Mopar enthusiast but not a Ford enthusiast because of the reverse posts and the problem it causes in a Ford application. Maybe of value in a battery display. Sorry my knowledge of the Rebat batteries is very limited.  Best of luck finding the information you need.
