Antique Auto Battery is reportedly now called Jim's Battery.
Overall Yelp reviews are not kind, though satisfied customers rarely
bother rate a business.
Disguising a different brand battery seems a nice option to save
money. Here is one place.
I suppose a search of ebay would turn up other places making the
battery disguise kits.
I think the cap color was a quick visual to indicate the amp rating
of the battery. Yellow 48 amp Green 59 amp
Thanks,
