p10plymouth Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 I saw a Optima car battery, that made their battery look like a vintage 6 volt battery.. Does anyone know if anyone makes a Replica (6 volt cover) It will just slip over a newer looking battey, to make them look old.... and where to get one...Thanks DANiel Quote

thrashingcows Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 Cool...Thanks for the link!! That disguise battery case is pretty nifty... Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 If you're planning on buying a new Optima battery, it might not prove to be a very good investment. Numerous members of another well known forum posted problems they had with the new (now made in Mexico) Optimas. And, apparently no good customer service from the maker. Now, what other square batteries would fit it their case, I don't know. Have never had or seen that case, except in pictures. Quote
thrashingcows Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 IS there a company that just makes the toppers? I have a group 27 mopar topper for my 68 T/C wagon. I just have to bring it with me when I buy a battery since it needs to fit the posts. Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 (edited) I don't know about toppers, Brian. Just like school - there's a homework assignment for you.....are they still available, etc??? I once purchased the aftermarket Mopar Battery sign you can stick on the side of your battery. Was OK till I needed the next battery. Where I buy my new 6 volt batteries, I ask them for one without a brand sticker on it (they often apply it at time of the sale), and they will do it.
