Default Re: battery woes

Are you sure the battery is being discharged/ I just went through this on my coupe, and the problem wasn't a bad battery, it was a bad ground for the battery. It acted like it was dead, but when I cleaned up my ground connection, things worked fine. You say you're nearing your finished restoration; did you scrape some paint off the frame where the battery grounds to the crossmember?
