The dropped battery box is the way to go ... my 79 has this from factory and is real nice but I have to say the bottom is open ..mybe for spillage or fumes ??? and the new batteries dont fit right. The factory box is narrow and long and very deep. It apears to have a cover that I'm missing ??? does anyone have an extra one for me ??? I have the Optima sealed battery in there now but it doesnt fit nice. I think its a great idea to cut it into the floor of the front compartment.
