The alter 9000 series cars had a drop battery standard, it is not a full boxed section, but more a rail the battery sits on with open sides.

Dear Julian,


You mentioned that the 9000 series cars have an effectively open construct for the drop battery.

I can't recall if you have a 9000 series Pantera, but I wonder about the advantages/disadvantages of the open/boxed drop battery constructs in the situation of actually driving hundreds of highway miles as in traveling to a Fun Rally?

Is there a clear advantage to one over the other in real world use?


Warmest regards, Chuck Engles

Here's one thread

lots of possible search terms for this one: dropped battery, hidden battery, lowered battery, recessed battery, relocated battery.

Thanks everyone for the tips.
Being new to the Pantera world, I am quickly learning that Pantera owners are a creative bunch. It seem typical that everyone has their own twist on how to do things. It's all good as long as no one hurts themselves.

I purchased a bracket from bob at precision performance very east to do . purchased sheet metal at Lowes and formed cover,
