Default Rebuilding the rebuilt battery
As Tim had mentioned, this car came with it's original air filter element as well as original battery. When the car was recommissioned, the battery was gutted and fitted with a modern dry AGM unit. Well, that one died.


Soooo, time to dive back in. This took some time. Thankfully, the original case did not get damaged. It was filled with some type of glue as well as Great Stuff


The replacement should be here on Thursday. I can get this buttoned back up and reinstalled
