Reply to "Battery detailing"

If you somehow come across a junk Magneto-Marelli battery, it's possible to melt the top sealing goo off, gut the interior & wash the case clean, then fit a smaller modern battery inside and tack-glue the original top back on. Internal jumpers connect the 2 sets of posts. Guys with ancient vintage cars do this for formal Concours- sometimes going from 6v to12v in the process while losing no judge's points. Don't throw ANYTHING away when working on your DeTomaso!
