New "Old style" Battery
« on: December 20, 2020, 16:15:02 »
My 60's reproduction battery arrived this morning from Battery Mall Central. I ordered a 24F Lucas Battery, used in the early 60's. It was the only European car reproduction battery that they make. MB has not released the rights to make reproduction batteries with MB or a MB logo on it. The fit and finish is excellent. It just looks so much better in these engine compartments than modern style batteries. It is a maintenance free, AGM battery with plenty of cranking power. 900 amps @ 32 degrees F. The hold down frame fits pretty well too. Price was $349.00. Free shipping. I have attached 3 pictures, and yes, I know, my positive cable should be black.  ;D
