Seems like I saw an ad some time ago but wasn't interested then. Do you drill the holes for the battery posts or are they already there? Would like a repro but probably a little pricey for me right now and my car is not a show car anyway. Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the fast replies! I,ve got one on my car,just have to look for a batt with the posts on the eng. side with a flat top. Of course the right size.Check to see what color caps are right for your car. I got bat. from NAPA. Just take top and look around or measure.
