Re: My GMC re-restoration

Any time someone moves a battery to that position I like to remind them.....
Be sure to build a shield of some type to protect it from mud, tire rubber chunks, rocks, etc. Ask me how I know....lol.

Do you have a picture of your battery shield? I'm in the same boat

No pics. It was actually on a Willys wagon. I ended up moving the battery inside the frame rail on it as I found some room.
