Hi all,
While I'm waiting for my supplies to come, I was wondering if there would be any interest in a fiberglass battery tray. Noticing on most cars the tray is always missing. The tray would include the drain hose.
Can someone tell me if all the years were the same? Did the tray have one drain hose or two? I looked at my 78 and it has two drain holes in the base on the car.
Is there interest in a Trunk battery tray?

How about looking into building a battery tray with the 2 side storage boxes built into one unit or connecting pieces. Like in the post "A few custom bits installed today"

Seeing how your doing a lot of custom work... there are a pile of solutions here:

I will be using one of the options here I just haven't decided yet. In my spider the battery was originally in the engine bay. I have filled in the hole where the rusty battery tray used to be and am moving the battery to the trunk.
A lot of the stuff I use comes directly from the hotrodding suppliers or a junkyard from any car in the yard not model specific... Unless it is a body panel, control arm. Steering Arm or tie-rod and that has to come from a FIAT supplier for sure and I have to modify most those parts in order to use them on my car as well...
