RE: [Chrysler300] 1958 300D - Original Battery

Great shot.  It appears to have a middle post and I kind of recall seeing
these from time to time so one could pull 6 Volts if needed.  I'd not expect
it to be OEM, however.

 

Also, the caps sort of look like the ones where one could view the
acid/water level through a little window on top without pulling the cap.
Deja Volt all over again.

Thanks for the help everyone.

I have attached a photo of my battery from February 1958. The car was only a
few weeks old when this was taken, although it was covered in dirt from a
day of dry lake racing.

It has ribs on the side, which should make it easier to identify. I'll start
looking for old battery catalogs to see what it matches. Probably a Willard
as mentioned earlier.

For those who can't see the attachment, you can go to:
