1936 battery box pictures needed

[36crazy]

Can anyone post some pictures of there 35-36 stock battery box? My battery was improperly mounted to the firewall with a bracket when I got my car and im trying to decide what to do with the battery now

Hi Everyone, 36crazy these should get you pointed in the correct direction if you look around the mods (which I rarely approve of, but use these).

There's a forward and rearward transverse between the X and the longitudinal side frame rail that hooks up the front and rear of the 'battery tray' which is about a 1 inch lip at the bottom of each brace.

That stuff gets worn out on many frames.

Are you aware of where your battery cover is? They're one of those things that have been tossed in the past.

Thanks, looks like I'm missing the front crossmember for the battery tray and tray itself

The front cross member of the '35-'36 battery box, as shown in Dons picture posted above, was, and still may be an available reproduction item. I know I bought a couple of them some years ago for my cars. They could be riveted or bolted in place of the original.
