I used a interstate battery, removed all the stickers, painted the sides black and added the correct for my car yellow caps.
Will the caps for the original style batteries fit the newer style (Interstate) batteries.

I had to remove the threaded area on the cap so it would push into the interstate battery.

Here's one. Looks nice and will fool most of the people at quick glance. Its a little wider than I would have liked, and needed to mod the holdown a bit. For me and my one of none big block 72 Challenger, its just fine.
