Correct Battery Hold Down?????

[Karl L.]

What does the correct battery hold down look like for a "55" or later Vette?
The one with a heat shield or one with-out?
Painted, unpainted, cadium plated or zinc plated?

Karl.

I have a new tray bottom to weld on the frame but
haven't bought the hold down yet.

Re: Correct Battery Hold Down?????

to my knowledge, nobody repo's a completely correct hold-down for the 55-57 vettes as the repo's have cutouts for the battery cable terminals. i have the repo and plan to fabricate/weld in pieces to do away with the cutout areas.mike

Mike,
