I noticed the terminal positions on the Quail box, but want to see how well it fits the battery box and hold down. I currently have the Optima hold down that Bratton's sells, and it works well, but I just don't like how that battery looks. I don't know if Gary has any plans for a top to the Quail box that has the terminals in the correct position for the Model A or not. If the Quail box doesn't fit well, has too many cable problems, etc., in my '30 Model A, I'll use it in my '39, where the Optima sits out in the open under the hood (much worse appearance than in the A). I'll let everyone know how it comes out.
