I ask, because in my inimitable way, I have cross filled it to some unknown location in my ‘puter file system. So if one of ya has the actual dimensions as shown on that drawing or the link or a copy of the drawing can you please sent it to me? I went out yesterday and moved the battery tray on “xxxx1136” Mk I and yes, I have a screw hole but only one and it is about mid tray on the outside of the tray location. And no wood. BUT, sometime in the past I put a piece <span style='background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow'>inside the tray</span>, why I do not remember (hey, I have owned this car since Jan 1967 – lots of water under that bridge). And I have no idea as to why I did it ‘cause it was many years ago. I do have the side piece however. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow'>Anyway, if you have a copy of that drawing, the one under the tray, not the one mounted to the frame rail on the side, or a link I would appreciate</span> it. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>By the way, if you look at the mechanics of the how the wood is supposed to be helping, it really doesn’t. If the tray sits directly on the metal floor and abuts the piece on the frame, the battery bolts that hold the bat in place keep it up against the side and firmly on the bottom. I have all of the other OEM battery box pieces and the battery in my car simply will not move when it is in place and tightened down. No movement. Oh, I moved the car out of the race car shop to my main garage a few months ago, fired it up and drove it over. Then I disconnected the ground cable from the battery. Volt meter yesterday showed 12.5 volts after all that time. I have a spare race car disconnect switch which I will put in the car to facilitate disconnecting soon. Oh, and I still have the battery vent hose in my car after all these years also. Not connected to anything because batteries with the vented caps are nonexistent where I am. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Anyway, nice chatting this morning… very smokey here in Pahrump last few weeks.
