Yes , that's why I'm asking for an old picture. They offer terminals front and back , right and left for positive post. Then is it yellow caps or black caps with yellow lettering ??? Gotta be a picture of an original out there

1964 GMC, less than a year old, should be the original battery!

Awesome picture Factorystock !! Two unrelated things stick out in that picture , one , whats on the firewall to the left of master cylinder ? Two , wonder why the flex hose for top radiator ? Must have been to clear that AC Compressor . Curious too , what was the truck ? And article about ?

That answers the question I had , battery terminals to the front of vehicle , POS on left as your looking at it , and black caps with yellow lettering. Almost bought yellow caps . THANK YOU !!

Crazy:
Battery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/27427281931...BoCZF4QAvD_BwE
Or if you just need the caps - https://www.ebay.com/itm/28411916773...IAAOSwUk5f3LTk

When it comes to studying these vehicles, I try to overturn every stone, including checking out camping and 4 wheel drive magazines from back in the day. Photos from 4 wheeler magazine, July '65. The person who bought the Jimmy knew what he wanted, optioned for tough going in the outback! There might have been some aftermarket accessories installed on it, but I positive it still has the original battery for a 1 or 1 1/2 year old vehicle.This Jimmy must be a '64, GMC stopped installing hubcaps on '65 and '66 factory 4x4's. Notice the rare optional "Prutsman" stainless west coast mirrors and heavy duty commercial 2 piece tube type 15" rims, the rims that accept those 7 5/8" opening hubcaps.
