That Frost Green COPO Chevelle is Fred Nolans.He is from here in St. Charles Il.
I've seen this website earlier.Kind of odd to see creme of the crop cars on a Webpage for a fake battery top?
Spend 50K+ on the car,then throw in a Sears DieHard and cover it with a Fake R-59 Battery top!

It's better to have a Die-Hard with a topper on it than have the "real deal" puke all over your engine compartment

. We learned this the hard way.

I just purchased my first topper, really I did. I just wanted to be 'in' with the crowd.

So what's the verdict, seriously, on these battery toppers? Has anyone here ever had a car judged with a battery topper?

It would never pass the jugding at the Camaro Nationals at Carlisle any easier than a steering wheel cover or Kmart seat covers. I am not saying it is a bad thing for the long run, but it would not pass 7000+ point serious judging...BKH

Rob, makes a good point. I have not had much luck w/the repro batteries either as they never seem to be able to hold a charge. The battery topper gives a nice look for the local cruise and then at a more serious show, I swap in the repro battery for more of a correct look.
