        how about a sticker saying "Do Not Touch", or "Keep Off". That'll keep 'em at bay. I take it it's an optima, or other sealed, battery. Was the box just too big to mount in the spare tire area?

          Optima 1050 CCA battery from my chevelle

          Put a sticker there... and people turn it off.

          I gotta get a "push off" sticker for it for the track

          Battery is better where it is instead of spare tire compartment, it wouldn't fit there.

              Red canister = coolant over flow tank

                      go to AZ, get one of those universal (read: small) windsheild washer resoviors, plumb it. weighs like what, 6oz? But then it isn't red either.....

                      All that wiring under the hood makes me reminesce about the Studebaker I had.

                          Why did you relocate the battery James?

                          You could have gone with a light weight battery and saved much more weight.

                          Relocating the battery is required at the 9.99 level.

                            Well, due to my, still present, traction issues I figured I'd give it a try again.

                            I had all the parts already.

                            It didn't take long for the install.

                            I had to buy a couple connections which were very cheap
