| The
1926 donor car that |
| had
been reported as |
| sitting
out for over 30 yrs. |
| It
truly showed the wear |
| as
a result. It was a |
| gold
mine of parts to |
| this
needy restorer. |
|
 |
| The
Bakelite cover is off |
| in
this view of the battery |
| box
being wired. |
|
 |
| The
top of the old |
| battery
box (upside |
| down).
Accurate |
| dimensions
were the |
| great
value of this |
| part
as well as all the |
| trinkets
that were on it. |

| The
brass tag fitted to |
| the
top of the battery |
| box
cover. |
|
 |
| The
new box top and |
| bottom
just after the |
| dovetails
were done |
| and
fit. Next was a lot |
| of
cutting, routing, |
| sanding,
and drilling to |
| make
everything as |
| it
fit on the old box. |

box in the |

frame. |
|
 |
| The
fittings that came |
| off
the box top have |
| left
their mark for all |
| to
see in the future. |
|
| All
of these old parts are |
| being
saved in case |
| someone
needs these |
| measurements
again. |
